[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up near the ocean and the number one thing for us was knowing our limit. We also didn’t have a lot of beaches with lifeguards. [b]But it’s also about respecting the power of the ocean, rip currents, etc[/b]. Also, the shark thing a bit, given how much more common they are. Most little kids like to wade and play in the tidal pools and dig in the sand. So it depends on your kids. [/quote] The Mediterranean sea does not have rip tides like the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. I know of 2 separate incidents of someone drowning near Ocean City. Both survived but one is in a vegetative state.[/quote]
