A rip current, often simply called a rip (or misleadingly a rip tide), is a specific kind of water current that can occur near beaches with breaking waves.

Říp Mountain
Říp Mountain (also known as Říp Hill; IPA: [ˈɦora ˈr̝iːp] (listen); German: [Sankt] Georgsberg or Raudnitzer Berg) is a 461 metres (1,512 ft) high solitary hill located 20 km south-east of Litoměřice, Czech Republic. According to national legend, it is the place where the first Czechs settled. The mountain and the rotunda on its top are among the Czech national cultural monuments.
Říp, being visible from great distance, has always been an important orientation point in the Bohemian scenery and has attracted attention since the oldest times.
The historical area around the mountain is informally called Podřipsko (literally "area under Rip"). The corresponding municipalities formed the Association of Podřipsko Municipalities.
