This pic was taken a week or two ago above Pensacola Beach. I don’t know if a more perfect photograph of rip tides has ever been taken.

If there has, I’ve never seen one. Ray Charles could see those rip tides

Darwin always wins.

Or…the ocean is racist or it’s Trump’s fault.

Looking at that pic, it almost seems like if someone did swim parallel and out of one rip, they would be swimming straight into another.

That’s a perfect picture and teachable moment copy this pic to share with your kids.
As a lifeguard we used riptides all the time, you always kept an eye on them so you knew where they are and which way they are moving, To keep people out of them and to use them as the express lanes to get to people. You can cover 75 yards in world record speed it doesn’t look human how fast you go. Parents familiarize how to find them and teach your kids, & when you go to the ocean tell your kids sunscreen first then “find the riptides” now get dad a beer.
