Description
This alert message is valid from 12 Noon, 19th September, 2023 through to 6:00 am, 20th September, 2023.

Hazard Info:-
**** Hazard Info ****
A high-surf advisory is in effect for above-normal breaking waves within the surf zone and along the beaches of the west coast of Barbados due to northerly swells.
Small craft operators and sea bathers along the west coast should exercise extreme caution as large breaking waves and strong currents within the surf zone and along the shore may become life-threatening, particularly during times of high tide.
Key takeaways:-
- Avoid sea-bathing in these areas until the advisory and all cautions have been lifted.
- Properly secure vessels anchored offshore.
- In areas where this advisory is not in effect ensure that there is a lifeguard on duty and be mindful of the warning flags along the beaches.
- Waves may not look excessive at times and could be deceiving, be mindful of strong currents and sudden pick up of breaking waves.
