Surf Life Saving Australia Chair of Lifesaving Chris Jacobson has urged families to have a plan for if things go wrong while swimming at unattended beaches.

“Have you got a plan with your family for if someone is caught in that rip?” he asked Sky News Australia.

“And then what you are going to do when they are in the rip?

“And what tools you might have to assist you.”

Mr Jacobson joined Sky News presenter Tim Gilbert to talk about water safety as Sydney’s hot weather continues after summer has ended.
