Host bundled 'amber heat' and 'do not enter the water'. Kid is 6. We can stay knee-deep. I will not invent a marine colour for Nilaveli. Marine Amber I have is Hambantota–Pottuvil, not this bay. Heat is Bulletin 01 Caution Eastern, valid 2 Sep.

Correct split. Heat Caution is daytime felt-temperature, shade and water, not a swim ban. Marine Amber is a different PDF and a different stretch of sea. Bay flags here are the bay. Knee-deep with a six-year-old is ordinary if the flag is not red. Host mixing two sheets is a sales pitch.
