First time touching the ocean water, jumping on the waves and boogie boarding on the Sunday morning at Torrey Pines Beach in San Diego, CA

Bee aware of rip currents before you go swimming or boogie boarding!
From Wikipedia:
A rip current is a strong surface flow of water returning seaward from near the shore (not to be confused with an undertow). It is often called a "rip tide" or "riptide", though the occurrence is not related to tides. Colloquially a rip current is known simply as a rip. Although rip currents would exist even without the tides, tides can make an existing rip much more dangerous - especially low tide. Typical flow is at 0.5 meters per second (1-2 feet per second), and can be as fast as 2.5 meters per second (8 feet per second). Rip currents can move to different locations on a beach break, up to tens of metres (a few hundred feet) a day. They can occur at any beach with breaking waves, including the world's oceans, seas, and large lakes such as the Great Lakes in Canada and the United States.
