Water Safety Essentials

Stay safe every time you hit the water

1

Always wear a life jacket

Even strong swimmers should wear a PFD on open water. Many rentals include one — ask the owner or BYO an approved life jacket.

2

Check weather and tides

Before heading out, check the Bureau of Meteorology forecast, wind speeds, and tide charts. Avoid offshore winds on SUPs and kayaks.

3

Tell someone your plan

Let a friend or family member know where you're going, what you're doing, and when you expect to be back on shore.

4

Inspect gear before launch

Check for leaks in inflatable boards, test fin attachments, ensure paddle lengths are correct, and verify all buckles on life jackets.

5

Stay in designated areas

Swim and paddle in patrolled zones where possible. Avoid shipping channels, river mouths with strong currents, and rocky shorelines.

6

Know your limits

If you're new to a sport, start in calm flat water. Rent a learner-friendly board or kayak and build skills before tackling waves or open ocean.
