Many people drown every year. Be sure to be safe when swimming near a river mouth by following these steps:
1
If the tide if flowing out rapidly, it is advisable not to swim in the river at all.
2
Swim when the tide is coming in, but even then, not if the water is flowing rapidly.
3
Try swim slightly upriver from the mouth area.
4
Make sure you have checked the times of the changing tides, so as to get out of the water before the tide starts going out.
