Rip tide
Rip tide or riptide, also known as an ebb jet or tidal jet, is a strong tidal flow of water within estuaries and other enclosed tidal areas. The term "rip tide" or "riptide" is often incorrectly applied to rip currents, which are not tidal flows. The US National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration comments: The term "ebb jet" would be used for a tidal current leaving an enclosed tidal area, and "flood jet" for the equivalent tidal current entering it.
