BE SAFE AT<br />
THE COAST<br />
KNOW THE DANGERS<br />
● Don’t get cut off by the tide. Tides makes sea<br />
levels rise and fall and can cause safe areas of<br />
beaches <strong>to</strong> quickly disappear. Check tide times<br />
for the day of your visit.<br />
● Know what a rip current is and what <strong>to</strong> do if<br />
you get caught in one. Rips are strong currents<br />
that can drag you out <strong>to</strong> sea. If you find yourself<br />
in a rip don’t swim against it. If you can, swim<br />
parallel until you are free of the rip. If you can’t<br />
swim, float on your back and shout for help.<br />
● <strong>The</strong> RNLI does not advise using inflatable <strong>to</strong>ys in<br />
the sea. Blow-up <strong>to</strong>ys and airbeds are designed for<br />
pools not the sea, where they can be swept out.<br />
STAY TOGETHER<br />
● Always go in<strong>to</strong> the water with someone else.<br />
Friends and family can help in an emergency.<br />
● Where possible swim at a lifeguarded beach or<br />
swimming area and only swim between the red<br />
and yellow flags.<br />
FLOAT TO LIVE<br />
● If you get in<strong>to</strong> trouble in the water, float <strong>to</strong> live.<br />
● Fight your instinct <strong>to</strong> thrash around, and keep<br />
hold of anything you have that floats, like a<br />
bodyboard or ball.<br />
● If you don’t have anything that floats, then float<br />
on your back like a starfish. Lean back and<br />
extend your arms and legs.<br />
● Float until you can control your breathing.<br />
● Only then, call for help, swim <strong>to</strong> safety or<br />
continue floating until help arrives.<br />
Long Distance Footpaths<br />
<strong>Devon</strong> has hundreds of miles of designated long distance paths<br />
that traverse some of the most beautiful and varied landscapes in the UK.<br />
<strong>The</strong> main routes are shown on the map (but you will need a better map<br />
if you want <strong>to</strong> walk these routes). Full details are available from<br />
Tourist Information Centres and online.<br />
