If you do plan to go out to the water this weekend, we want to remind you to keep safety in mind.
On Friday we reported two near drownings on Padre Island beaches on Friday, both victims were caught in rip tides.
The two incidents were just minutes apart at the Packery Channel and Bob Hall Pier.
Experts say it's important to remember that if you do get caught in a rip current, don't fight it! Instead swim parallel to the shore.
A former beach lifeguard with the US Lifesaving Association tells 3news that things can turn deadly in just seconds.
