Impacts: Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water.
Additional Details: Rip currents occur often in the vicinities of jetties and piers and the speed of the currents are generally maximized at low tides.
Swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax and float. Don't swim against the current. If able, swim in a direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.
