However, rip currents are always possible, especially near jetties and other structures. Always have a flotation device with you in the water. * Moderate Risk - A moderate risk of rip currents implies that individuals planning to enter the surf should check with local beach patrols first. Be sure to swim within sight of a life guard, and never alone or at night. Always have a flotation device with you in the water. * High Risk - A high risk of rip currents means dangerous and potentially life threatening conditions exist for all people entering the surf.

Always have a flotation device with you in the water. Moderate Risk of rip currents - Wave conditions support stronger or more frequent rip currents. Always have a flotation device with you in the water. High Risk of rip currents - Large waves will produce strong rip currents, especially along narrow reefs and beaches. Rip currents will be life threatening. If caught in a rip current, swim parallel to the beach rather than against the current. $$
