Beach Vacation Safety Tips for Indian Travellers

Beach Vacation Safety Tips for Indian Travellers

  • Always swim between the red and yellow flags. These zones are monitored by trained lifeguards and indicate the safest area to swim. Australian beaches often have strong waves and rip currents, which can be dangerous even for confident swimmers.
  • The sun here is super strong, even on cloudy days. Use a high SPF sunscreen, wear UV-protective sunglasses, and cover up with light clothing.
  • Don’t leave your valuables unattended, even for a quick dip. While Australia is generally safe, theft can happen when tourists leave their belongings out in the open.
  • Watch out for jellyfish and marine warnings. In places like Queensland, stinger season is real, wear stinger suits if you're planning a swim during that time. Always check local beach notices or ask lifeguards before entering the water.
  • Get international travel insurance. It can cover you for medical emergencies or even trip interruptions. Surfing and snorkelling injuries, though rare, can be costly without coverage.
