Follow official evacuation orders: When a tsunami warning is issued, listen to local authorities and immediately evacuate to higher ground.
Find high ground: If possible, move to the highest ground possible. Climb to the top of a hill or mountain, or seek shelter in a tall building.
Stay away from the coast: Move at least two miles inland to avoid the initial surge of a tsunami.
Stay away from rivers and canals: A tsunami can travel up rivers and canals, so stay away from them.
Stay inside: If you can’t evacuate, stay inside and away from windows and doors.
Seek refuge: If you can’t evacuate, find a place that is high and far away from the coast. This could be a tall building, a bridge, or a high hill.
Be prepared: Take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the evacuation routes in your area. This will help you quickly and safely evacuate in case of a tsunami.
