In the water

  • Do not attempt jumping or diving off cliffs. It is not cool. DON'T DO IT!
  • On beaches, be wary of box jellyfish! Their sting is extremely painful!
  • In rivers and lakes, be wary of saltwater crocodiles
  • Do not damage coral found on reefs or on the seabed. It's not cool.
  • Stay within sight of patrol life savers
  • Be cautious of riptides and undertows that could take you out to sea
  • Sharks are attracted by blood
  • Stingrays often hide under the sand in shallow water. Be careful where you tread!
  • Freshwater crocs are harmless. The salties are not!
