Being lost at sea is one of the most terrifying survival experiences imaginable. The endlessness of the ocean, limited resources, and exposure to the elements can make minutes feel like days and days feel like weeks. And that's if you're fortunate enough to be stranded on a vessel or raft. If you're in the water without any kind of flotation device, your chances of survival are significantly reduced. Causes of death while lost at sea can range from drowning and dehydration to shark attacks.
So, if you're planning a cruise trip or leisurely day at the beach, read this gallery in advance to find out how long you could potentially survive if you happened to get lost at sea. Click through now.
