Yes. Also, don't fight it. You most likely won't win against a rip current. You'll spend all your energy trying to fight the current that will inevitably bring you out to sea. Once the current is done, people who fight the current will be so exhausted that they're unable to tread water until help comes and they ultimately drown.
