"A High Surf Advisory means that high surf will affect beaches in the advisory area producing localized beach erosion and dangerous swimming conditions," the NWS said.

Inexperienced swimmers were urged to steer clear of the waves until the advisory expires after Friday evening.

"If you become caught in a rip current, yell for help, remain calm and do not exhaust yourself," the NWS said. "If you have to swim out of a rip current, swim parallel to shore and back toward the beach when possible."
