🌊 SEA CONDITIONS

- RIP CURRENTS. Even with calm sea states forecast, our beaches have been and continue to be host to strong Rip Currents across all stretches. Swim Between the Red and Yellow Flags at all times.

Be aware of safe exit paths and moving yourself and belongings in plenty of time to avoid being cutoff. Check the Tide Times before visiting and on our Information Boards and follow Patrolling Lifeguards’ advice on moving.
