Swell Warning

Sea conditions are set to be extremely dangerous from Wednesday onwards, with huge waves, strong rip currents and increased tidal surges forecast.

The RNLI is urging people to only visit Cornwall’s lifeguarded beaches and to listen to their advice.

If there are no flags then there are no lifeguards.

Do NOT enter the water if the red flag is flying – it only takes seconds to get caught out in conditions like these.

If you see anyone in difficulty, call 999 and ask for the coastguard.
