Rip Currents: Stay Alive at the Beach | Dover News

Published 6 days, 13 hours ago
Description

Rip currents are sneaky ocean killers — not sharks, but fast-moving rivers of water pulling swimmers away from shore. They claim about 100 lives a year and affect beaches everywhere, including the Great Lakes. Spot them by dark, churning channels or foam being pushed offshore. If caught? Don’t panic or fight the current — swim parallel to shore or float until you’re out. Wave for help if you can’t make it. Always swim with lifeguards, know how to swim in open water, and check conditions before diving in. And yes, sharks are in Delaware waters too — stay safe by swimming with buddies, sticking to guarded zones, and avoiding dawn, dusk, or night.
