Best Answer

Undertows can pull swimmers under, and rip tides can pull swimmers far away from where they entered the water. The danger is not knowing how to deal with these types of currents. simply pulling up your legs and swimming on the surface is an effective way of dealing with an undertow. Swimming with the current of a rip tide and edging steadily back toward shore.
