[quote=Anonymous]I'm a very strong swimmer - swam competitively growing up and in the winters, I still swim laps and tread water in a pool for exercise. That said, I will only swim in the ocean when it's relatively calm. I find it very stressful to navigate rougher water or currents, even when there's a green flag and there are lifeguards on duty. It's just not relaxing or fun for me anymore. Also, I never swim out into waves without a lifeguard. Though I'm still a strong swimmer, the Atlantic Ocean can be unpredictable. I'm happier staying in waist-high water unless there's someone there to safe me, if needed. :) [/quote]
