Galveston Beach Safety

As Spring draws to an end, and the warm Summer months are upon us, it becomes time to really think about safety at the beach. Everyone wants to enjoy their vacation, so keeping these tips in mind when at the beach will help ensure that each and every person has a great time!

1. Never swim alone! This can make it harder to receive help in the event that something does go wrong.

2. Stay away from rip currents. These currents are very dangerous, and can sweep you away at any moment. Jetties and Piers are also something to avoid, rip currents tend to formulate in these areas.

3. Make sure you are swimming near a lifeguard. Protected areas are much safer in the event that something does go wrong.

4. Pay attention to your surroundings. This includes other swimmers, warning flags, and signs of trouble.

5. Wear protective clothing/sunscreen. This will help prevent aches and pains after your fun day at the beach.

6. If you are not a strong swimmer, take swimming lessons! Lessons will teach you how to avoid a problem, and strengthen your swimming skills.

7. Most of all, relax and have a good time. Just because you are cautious does not mean you cannot have fun!
