The first rule of safe swimming is to never swim alone. Never swim in rough open water and do not swim in water so cold that prolonged exposure could result in hypothermia.

Always have a lifeguard present who is certified by the Red Cross or other reputable safety program of training. You should be able to swim twenty-five yards without stopping to be allowed in water over your head. Never swim with an open wound or other bodily artifact that exposes inner body tissue to the water. Children under 12 years of age should be accompanied and closely monitored by an adult who would be capable of rescuing the child should any trouble develop. The lifeguard at a pool or beach always has the authority to dictate in decisions regarding safety and the smooth operation of the facility.
