The National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) is appealing to bathers, boaters, paddlers, sailors, shoreline anglers and coastal hikers to be cautious around the coastline as the full moon spring tide peaks today, Friday November 15.

NSRI spokesman Craig Lambinon said it would cause the daily two high tides to be higher than normal and the daily two low tides to be lower than normal throughout the coming weekend and next week.

Spring tides may cause stronger than normal sea currents posing a potential hazard to bathers around the coastline, especially during the outgoing tide.

Coastal hiking trails could be cut off and fishing spots engulfed by waves during the high tide, Mr Lambinon said.

Inland water users should also be cautious in rivers, lakes and dams.

Follow the SA Weather Service daily forecasts and, around the coast, follow daily tide timetables, he said, adding that boaters, paddlers and sailors should wear life-jackets and have safety gear at hand and the free NSRI SafeTrx app on their phones.

“We appeal to parents to ensure your children have responsible adult supervision in and around water.”
