    WHEN: Through this evening.

    If you enter the surf zone, always have a flotation device with
    you and swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax
    and float, and do not swim against the current. If able, swim in
    a direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face
    the shore and yell or wave for help.
