That reminds me of what they would show us in primary school to recognise rip tides. In Australia in the 1990’s and 2000’s we would go to swimming lessons yearly, and to the beach for water safety lesson’s, and to swim, as a school class. We have some really beautiful local beaches that tourists are flocking to that locals beg people not to swim in as they are lethal. We used to have the very occasional Australian swimmer drown from rips, with the bulk being tourist who don’t know our conditions and our life saver flagged area, but now we are getting more Aussies swimming in unsafe areas and manners.

I came here to comment something similar. Also an Aussie and with more and more people chasing “secret spots” with no lifeguards patrolling i think it’s getting dangerous. I also remember learning in depth about what a rip looked like and how to free yourself if stuck. I work in education and I don’t think it’s taught anymore.

Part of this is psychological. Tourists sometimes let their common sense and defenses down when they travel. They put themselves in "adventure mode" and think they can "conquer" all things. They watch KZfaq videos about people doing some rather risky things and think they too can do the same. Unfamiliar settings, food, cultures can confuse people, especially if they are in lets-hurry-up-and-have-fun mode. I live in Maine and see this all the time with summer tourists.

If you go to an Oregon beach keep in mind RIP currents and sneaker waves are extremely popular on the Oregon coast and can be very dangerous. I’d say rip currents are worse because most people get scared get the water is sucking you out into the ocean and they use their energy trying to fight against it when your supposed to float it out til you stop, swim parallel to the beach for 15 yards then float/swim back to shore. And sneaker waves call for a bad picnic if your having one on a calm beach because the beach can be all dry and nice while your having a nice dinner by the water. Then a 5 foot wave very quickly sneaks up and swiftly shows you to the land, this may or may not have happened to me….

It’s that all people aren’t educated about storms, wind shear, barometric pressure and the tides. Schools are too busy teaching useless garbage like determining the area of a parallelogram or calculating hypotenuse. Few people ever use those skills outside a classroom. This instruction should be included in every science class. Two people just lost their lives in Florida because they didn’t know how to watch for a simple tip current!!🙁
@elainebmackАй бұрын
There's nothing wrong with learning the specialties you mentioned, but information and survival techniques about the natural world should be included. I use myself as an example. I moved to Maine from Chicago 6 years ago, and I sensed immediately that this was a complete change of environment for me. I had to learn how to handle a boat, how to manage woodburning fireplaces and stoves, how to read the ever-changing weather and tides, how to prepare for Nor'easters, and even how to shovel snow safely. I lived all my life in big cities in different parts of the world and never had to think about any of these things. It's always good to educate yourself about the environment you will be in long before you travel. Knowledge is power. It can save your life.

Don't think you're strong enough to resist. If you get carried out, don't panic. Eventually it will pull you far out enough to escape the rip tide and swim back in. It could be a long way. Even a few miles. But it won't kill you if you float on your back and gently tread water. Don't panic!

A rip current is a back flow of water that takes you away from the shore and out to sea. It is essentially a channel that flows outward from the shoreline to the open sea. In order to survive, DO NOT swim towards shore because you'll be swimming against the tide; instead, RELAX and let the current take you out to sea and once you feel the current dissipate you then swim parallel to the shoreline and then turn in towards the shore. The most deadly is not a rip current but the undertow; the undertow is when the water SUCKS you underwater; here again, you MUST relax and let the churning stop before you swim up for air. The more you struggle the more air used up so relax and let the water let you go and then float to the surface.
