What should I do if I get into trouble while swimming in open water?

Open water swimming can be an exhilarating experience, but it’s important to take safety measures to ensure that you don’t get into trouble. Swim Buoys are a great tool for keeping safe - they have compartments to store your personal belongings, and have bright colors so boats and other swimmers can spot you easily. The buoy also helps signal for help in the unlikely event that you do find yourself in trouble while swimming. Don’t be scared to go out there - just practice being aware of your surroundings, use a Swim Buoy, and most importantly, enjoy your time!
