Watch For Choppy Waters At The Beach

If you see a channel of choppy waters on the beach, it’s likely that there is a deadly rip current under the surface. Vance Joy may have romanticized riptides when he released his 2013 single, but these rip currents can be incredibly dangerous.

Each year, 100 people in the US die by getting trapped in rip currents and are the leading cause of lifeguard rescues. If you get caught in one, swim parallel to the beach to escape it and then swim back to the shore.
