ocean safety
Beach hazard awareness
Ocean safety encompasses practices and precautions for avoiding hazards in or near the sea—drowning, rip currents, marine life encounters, and watercraft accidents.
The term covers everything from basic swimming awareness to formal lifeguard training and coast guard protocols.
The resort offered an ocean safety briefing before the snorkeling trip.
Signs warning of dangerous conditions are ocean safety measures.
