Sea Survival Techniques

Sea survival techniques involve skills and knowledge to stay safe if stranded at sea. Key practices include wearing a life jacket to stay afloat, using signaling devices like flares or mirrors to attract rescue, and conserving energy by staying calm and limiting movement. If possible, use a life raft or flotation device, and keep warm with protective clothing or makeshift insulation. Treading water or floating helps prevent exhaustion. Proper training emphasizes the importance of safety equipment, recognizing distress signals, and maintaining a positive mental attitude, all essential for increasing chances of rescue and survival in a maritime emergency.
