Swimming in the sea is a fun and exhilarating part of any holiday in Cornwall, Devon or Dorset. However, the ocean is to be respected and we urge all of our guests to familiarise themselves with a few basic tips to help keep themselves and their families safe. Every year beach lifeguards across the UK respond to thousands of incidents, and the majority of those they help are children. One of the most common incidents lifeguards respond to involve rip currents; strong currents running out to sea, which can quickly drag you from the shallows and into deeper water. The strongest rip currents are found on beaches with powerful surf, but they can also occur around rivers mouths, estuaries and man-made structures such as piers. Even the most experienced swimmers can be caught out by rip currents, so it’s always best to seek the advice of a qualified beach lifeguard before you swim. Learn how to spot a rip current by looking out for patches of seemingly calm water where waves aren’t breaking. These areas may also be discoloured with large amounts of sandy sediment being sucked back out to sea. The RNLI has issued the following advice to anyone caught in a rip current:

stay calm – don’t panic

if you can stand, wade don’t swim

keep hold of your board or inflatable to help you float

raise your hand and shout for help

never try to swim directly against the rip or you’ll get exhausted

swim parallel to the beach until free of the rip, then make for shore If you see anyone in trouble, alert the lifeguards or call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard.

Remember to follow the flags:

Red and yellow flags; these flags indicate the safest part of the beach and you should always swim between them. Lifeguards will move the flags depending on the weather or tidal conditions. Black and white chequered flags; these flags indicate areas designated for watersports such as surfing and kayaking. Never swim here. Red flag; a red flag indicates danger! Never enter the water under any circumstances if a red flag is flying. Orange windsock; indicates offshore or strong wind conditions. Never use inflatables when an orange windsock is flying. Make sure you follow the advice of the RNLI, respect the water, and look out for each other.

What flag means shark?

A yellow flag means lifeguards are on duty and people should swim with caution. That is the flag that is up when ocean conditions are typical. A blue flag means dangerous marine life, such as jellyfish, sharks, fish or stingrays, have been spotted in the area.

MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - As two teenagers recover from shark attacks in North Carolina, lifeguards right down the coast here in South Carolina are reminding people to pay attention to the warning flags they put up to keep swimmers safe. "They need to know what's going on in the water and that's why we're here doing our job," said Martina Zirosova, recruiting and training manager for Lack's Beach Service. "We're here to inform people and make sure that everyone is safe." Lack's Beach Service managers figure out water conditions in the morning and then decide which flag will fly on the beach that day, Zirosova said. A yellow flag means lifeguards are on duty and people should swim with caution. That is the flag that is up when ocean conditions are typical. A blue flag means dangerous marine life, such as jellyfish, sharks, fish or stingrays, have been spotted in the area. If a lifeguard sees an animal in the water or notices a rip current, that lifeguard can call a supervisor and change the flag to a red "No Swimming" flag, requiring swimmers to get out of the water. That flag will stay up for about 10 minutes then the lifeguard can reevaluate the situation and take it down. Animals usually swim away within that amount of time. No matter which flag is flying, Lack's Beach Service recommends people don't swim close to piers because sharks are more common in those areas.
