dangerous stream (rip current) spot on beach. Lifeguard advices

this video shows a place where a stream (rip current) is on action on a sandy beach of crete.
u see that although its wavy in this area, there is a spot that there is not waves between other wavy spots.
if u watch this place on the beach then u will see that the
-the waves are small(not existing after bit from the shore)
-the water is moving the offshore direction(inside the sea..)
-the water comes more ''out'' on the coast creating small colpiscs.
if u ever swept away try 2 swim left or right direction...
this day is 4-5 beaufort n-nw wind.(its 50-60% of the maximum wind we have)on my left side the sea is not dangerous just a very small rip....
on my righr side (where the video is mostly recorded) u see a stream. its around 20 meters wide.but its better 2 keep precaution and to advice people 2 swim in other spots on the beach.
7 klm from this place(right side ofcourse...) there is a beach that the sea is much stronger, with places such as 5 really strong stream inside 500 metres...
