Thinking of going for a swim in open water this weekend? Before you do, consider these key safety tips:

• Research the local area and choose a location known for its safe swimming conditions.

• Swim parallel to the shoreline wherever possible, stay at a depth that allows you to stand up, and keep away from deeper water, which will be colder.

• Plan and be aware of your exit options, including emergency options.

• Avoid drifting in the currents by being aware of them before you enter the water.

• Keep an eye on a fixed landmark to ensure currents are not carrying you.

• Be aware of the wind direction, hidden and underwater obstacles, and bridges or breakwaters.

• Be aware of cold water shock - while the air temperature may be getting warmer, open water will still be freezing cold.
