Be sure to swim within sight of a life guard, and never alone or at night. Always have a flotation device with you in the water. * High Risk - A high risk of rip currents means dangerous and potentially life threatening conditions exist for all people entering the surf. People visiting the beaches should stay out of the high surf. $$ MEZ023-172000- Coastal York- Including the beaches of Old Orchard, Fortunes Rock, Wells, Ogunquit, and York 653 AM EDT Wed Apr 17 2024 .TODAY...
