Key Points for open water swimming:

  • Never swim without another person, use the ‘buddy system’
  • Beware of currents which may not be visible from the surface
  • Know your limits and swimming ability
  • Always wear a lifejacket whenever using a kayak or other paddle-powered vessel, or if unfamiliar with the waters you’re swimming in.

As a reminder, Pointes West has a life jacket rack on our swim beach, and life jackets can be checked out from the office FREE OF CHARGE.
