Definition: The baïne is like a basin of water at the edge of the ocean, which appears during high tides.
It will therefore create an inland current, at the point where there is the most moving water, and according to the change of tide, towards the open sea for example.
So if you're caught in the current, it's usually best to let yourself be carried along. You'll emerge from the chain and be able to return to shore.
