The sea in words
Calm, moderate, rough or dangerous for swimming, and when it turns worse.
When to stay out
- Any day the app says the sea is dangerous for swimming.
- Beaches with no lifeguard when waves are big.
- Swimming far from shore, or alone, or with a wind blowing away from the land.
Before you go
- Always follow the beach flags and the lifeguard.
- If a rip current pulls you out, do not fight it: swim across it, parallel to the shore, then back in, and call for help if you cannot.
- Keep children within arm's reach in the water.
- Use sun protection and drink water.
- Look at the sea yourself before you get in.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if a beach is safe for swimming today?
SeaAj gives an estimate of the sea and of rip current risk. Nothing replaces the flags and the lifeguard on the beach, and in a dangerous sea the app shows no reassuring score.
What is a rip current?
A narrow, strong current that flows away from the beach. The usual advice is to stay calm, not to swim against it, and to swim across it, parallel to the shore.
