Top Tips for Staying Safe Around Water

Want to make every swim safe and enjoyable? Follow these simple yet effective tips:

🌊 1. Never Swim Alone

Even the best swimmers should have a buddy or supervisor nearby. Water can be unpredictable, and having someone with you could make all the difference in an emergency.


🏊 2. Learn to Float and Tread Water

These basic skills are essential for water safety. They help you stay calm and buy time if you find yourself in trouble. Not sure where to start? RKLSwims has lessons designed to help you master the fundamentals.


👀 3. Keep a Close Eye on Children

If you’re supervising little ones, stay within arm’s reach, especially in or near water. Remember, drowning can happen quickly and silently.


🌊 4. Be Aware of Water Conditions

Swimming in the sea or a lake? Check for rip currents, sharp drops, or changing weather. Respecting the water’s conditions is a key part of staying safe.


🦺 5. Invest in Professional Lessons

Learning to swim properly and confidently is one of the best steps you can take for water safety. And with RKLSwims, you’ll gain skills that last a lifetime.
