Constant surveillance is essential: the parents and those accompanying them must supervise children and young people when they are in the water. Furthermore, it is important to never swim alone, but always be in company. It is necessary to respect the instructions by always observing the flags displayed by the lifeguards, since a red flag indicates dangerous conditions for swimming, and to respect the prohibition signs and the instructions of the lifeguards.
The use of safety equipment, such as life jackets, life vests and other floating equipment, is especially recommended for children and non-swimmers. It is best to avoid using inflatable mattresses in open water, as they can easily be carried away by currents.
Knowing the basics of first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is another important safety measure. In case of emergencyyou must call for help immediately and follow the instructions of qualified personnel.
