What should I do if I get caught in a rip current while swimming in Hua Hin?

Answer

If you find yourself caught in a rip current, don't panic. The most important thing is to stay calm and conserve your energy. • Instead of trying to swim directly back to shore against the current, swim parallel to the shore until you're out of the current's grip. • Once you're free, you can swim back to the beach at an angle. Flag down a lifeguard if you're feeling overwhelmed or need assistance.
