  • Hi my name's Henry Kiss

  • And I'm Club Captain here at Portsea Surf Life Saving Club

  • The number one danger on Australian beaches is rip currents

  • Now a rip current is just a body of water moving out to sea

  • What happens in the waves come in, they push a lot of water up the beach

  • That water then has to get back out to the ocean

  • And that's going to dig a hole and draw a current out with it

  • The reason they are so dangerous is

  • waves tend not to break in a rip current

  • And people think that they look safer because the water's a lot more calm

  • One of the problems is people will go into the water there

  • And they will be heading out to sea away from the safety of shore and they start to panic

  • The best way to avoid rip currents is

  • when you come down to the beach is to Swim between the red and yellow flags

  • The lifesavers and the lifeguards will set the flags up

  • away from the dangerous currents

  • If you do find yourself getting into trouble

  • Maybe a big set has come through and washed you into a rip

  • The first thing to remember is don't panic

  • Just relax, raise one arm and wave

  • until the lifesavers see you.

  • They will come out and get you. That's what they're there for.

  • Then the next thing to do is just relax.

  • Let the water take you where it will

  • Occassionally it will even just bring you back into the wave zone

  • and the waves will push you back into the shore

  • Otherwise just stay upright and wait for the lifesavers to come and get you

  • If you've got any questions at all

  • Please go and have a conversation with the lifesavers on duty

  • They will be more than happy to explain how the rips work and where they are on your particular beach
