Is wild swimming safe on a yacht charter?

Wild swimming on a yacht charter is safe when the crew runs it, and on a crewed boat they always do. Before anyone goes in, the captain checks the current, depth, and boat traffic. A tender or a crew member stays close. Snorkel gear, fins, and floats come standard, and the water is warm enough to skip a wetsuit. The real risks are simple ones. Drifting too far on a current, or losing track of the boat. Both vanish with a crew watching the swim and a dinghy nearby. Guests who cannot swim well use a noodle or stay in a shallow cove.
