The Antigua and Barbuda Meteorological Service has issued a High Surf Advisory for Antigua and Barbuda, the British Virgin Islands, and Anguilla, cautioning residents and visitors about perilous surf conditions expected to last through Thursday. The advisory highlights that moderate long-period swells are producing waves ranging from 6 to 10 feet along northern and north-facing coastlines. These conditions are anticipated to result in life-threatening rip currents, coastal flooding, and significant beach erosion. Authorities are strongly advising the public to avoid northern beaches and to swim only in areas monitored by lifeguards or on sheltered southern beaches. Additionally, the Met Service has warned against venturing onto rocks and jetties due to the hazardous surf. For ongoing updates, the public is encouraged to monitor official channels and follow relevant hashtags such as #HighSurfAdvisory, #AntiguaBarbuda, #MarineAdvisory, and #StaySafe.
