Always be on the lookout for rip currents while visiting North Carolina Beaches! 🌊

Here's the update on the picture of the rip currents we posted earlier. The blue box and arrow shows where the rip current is forming on beach. As the waves comes in all that water has to go somewhere. Here it is flowing east down the beach before it heads back out into the ocean as a rip current.

The large red boxes show whitewater beyond the breakers. These themselves are not always a rip current, but are strong indicators there is one very close, or embedded. When water flowing out from the beach is able to stop a wave in its tracks and flow "over" the top of the wave, flattening it, you should know there is strong current present.

The green arrows point to the rip currents. The one on top is pretty mild and you may hardly feel it, but the bottom one is very strong. They look calm, like a section of calm water between the breakers. In fact, they often look inviting as a place to avoid getting hit by big waves. Do not be fooled by their deception!

This photograph also shows how dangerously close swimmers are to active rip currents. We know we often sound like a broken record talking about these things, but when rip conditions are moderate (yellow flag) to high risk (red flag), we have a responsibility to inform as many people as we are able.

Not long after the original post, we were dispatched to a possible drowning, just 17 blocks west of where this picture was taken. We do not yet know if that was a result of a rip current or not, and do not know the outcome for the swimmer. We will provide a separate post about that call in the near future.

If you plan on visiting Surfers Nest this summer please read the article below issued by the town of Carolina Beach! We want everyone to stay as safe as possible while also doing our part to protect others and our beautiful community. The water and beaches are absolutely gorgeous right now. ☀️🌊🏄🏻‍♀️

PLANNING TO VISIT CAROLINA BEACH?

As visitors prepare for vacation, it is important to remember that the Coronavirus is not over. There are still State restrictions in effect to protect everyone’s safety that may impact the way you have vacationed in Carolina Beach in the past, including:

***Social distancing guidelines are still in place.
***Gatherings are limited to 10 people or less.
***Getting food from restaurants continues to be on a take-out or delivery basis.
***Businesses, including grocery stores, have limits on the number of people allowed in the store at any given time based on square footage.
***Personal care and grooming businesses as well as entertainment venues without retail or dining are not open yet based on state regulations which are not determined or controlled by our local government.

Also, remember that the CDC recommends no travel if you are sick or were recently exposed (within 14 days) to COVID-19. Additionally, individuals are encouraged to wear a mask or cloth face covering in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain.

Before traveling to Carolina Beach, out of town visitors are encouraged to contact their lodging provider to confirm their reservation and arrival plans.

Like many places in the United States, all shoppers should expect to see changes in product availability at grocery and retail outlets as supply chain demand fluctuates across the nation. If possible, visitors should bring essentials with them, including paper and sanitizing products and non-perishable groceries.

Carolina Beach’s business community has been working hard to adjust to the changes caused by the Coronavirus. There are new policies and staff training that businesses are putting in place right now to help everyone safe. And, we're going to need your help.

The Coronavirus is going to be out there this summer, but with a sense of personal responsibility and a continuation of safe practices that have slowed the virus' spread, we can enjoy the open spaces and natural beauty of Carolina Beach.
