Rip tides, also known as rip currents, are strong narrow currents that can pull swimmers out to sea. Some rip tides are so strong that they can drag swimmers away from shore before they realise what is happening. Swimmers should keep an eye out for rip tides while swimming in the sea at the beach. Rip tides can be identified by discoloured water, choppy waves and a foamy surface. They can be filled with debris. Swimmers are told to remember the âthree Rsâ if they become caught in a rip tide.
