Sand Safety

Digging holes in the sand at the beach can be great fun, but be careful how far and deep you dig. Don’t dig tunnels or dig holes that are deeper than your waist height or the waist height of younger siblings or friends! This is because sand can cave in and make it very dif cult to get out.

Also ll in any holes before you leave the beach so that others don’t get injured falling in.

Coastal Cliffs

Cliffs can be more dangerous than they look and cliff falls or landslides can happen suddenly. Keep an eye out and follow any warning signs. Always stay well back from cliff edges. If you’re on the beach by a cliff, don’t get too close to the base of the cliff and never climb a cliff as a short cut to the top.
