Water Safety Tip #4 : Reach or Throw—Don't Go!
If someone is struggling in the water, avoid entering the water yourself. Instead, extend a long object like a pool noodle, use a floatation device, or toss something that can help them stay afloat while you get help.
Watch our video to see this safety tip in action!

A life jacket saves lives. A properly fitted life jacket can make all the difference — especially for kids and less experienced swimmers. It’s one of the key ways to stay safer in and around the water.
Watch our quick video on why choosing a Coast Guard-approved life jacket is essential.
