🏊 Never swim alone — use the buddy system.
🌊 Caught in a rip current? Don't fight it. Swim parallel to shore until you're out, then head in.
👀 Watch the flag — conditions change fast. When in doubt, stay out.
Flag status is derived from live National Weather Service alerts for the Hunting Island area — it's not the physical flag on the beach. Tides are from Fripps Inlet; water temp from the nearest NOAA sensor (Fort Pulaski). Always check the actual flag at the beach and follow lifeguard instructions.
