Swimming at the beach
Posted by Emily on January 20, 2012
If you’re at a beach that doesn’t have lifeguards you need to know how to find rips. Rips pull you out to sea. They are normally in places where the water looks its calmest. If you’re at a beach with lifeguards you need to make sure you’re inside the red and yellow flags.
If you’re caught in a rip swim parallel to the beach, don’t try and swim straight back towards the beach because if you do you will just tire yourself out. The picture below comes from the Surf Life Savers website about beach safety. Here is another link about beach safety in Australia and about rips.
