To have a good rest at sea, you need to remember some safety rules. If you go abroad, then additional requirements are added to them, which also cannot be ignored.
Stay at sea
Try to sunbathe in the morning before 11 and in the evening after 4 pm. The hottest time, when the sun is most active, is fraught with burns that can ruin your entire vacation, and then will not allow you to boast of a pleasant tan. Use a sunscreen to protect your skin.
You should start sunbathing from 5-10 minutes, especially if you have naturally white and sensitive skin that burns easily. Then the time can be gradually increased.
Only swim in calm waters, especially if you are not confident in your abilities. If the sea is stormy, then it is better not to enter the water at all. Try to swim not into the distance, towards the buoys, but along the sea coast, where the depth is still shallow. Do not swim for too long if the water is cold: you run the risk of catching a cold, and your leg can be cramped. Never swim behind the buoys.
While swimming, try to prevent sea water from getting into your mouth, and be sure to rinse the bathing field with clean water, you can add fresh lemon juice for disinfection.
Try not to take valuables and large sums of money with you to the beach, especially if you are relaxing alone. If the hotel is nearby, you can even do without a telephone. Beach theft is far less rare than one might think. In the hotel itself, it is better to keep documents and valuables in a safe.
Security abroad
Be sure to find out and rewrite in a notebook or on a separate sheet of paper the coordinates of the Russian Embassy in the country of rest, and if it is not there, then the consulates. All contact details of such organizations should be at your fingertips, but not in your wallet. If you lose your passport or have any problems with the local police or the law, first try to contact the Russian mission and local police.
Do not rent anything with your passport. There are more cases of problems among tourists who leave a passport and then cannot get it from the business owner, as he demands a ransom for it.
Do not display values and signs of wealth, especially in countries where the living standards of the local population are significantly lower than that of tourists. But in developed countries, be on the lookout, theft and extortion from gullible tourists are widespread everywhere.
Get health insurance that suits your travel style. If you are a fan of extreme recreation, then insurance should also cover cases for such adventures. This will not only allow you to avoid large expenditures in case of problems, but also contribute to receiving emergency medical assistance on occasion.
Take with you to the country a first aid kit, which contains all "your" medicines. Things like bandages and plasters are easy to find anywhere in the world. Finding an analogue for your favorite headache pills or anything else in another country, however, can be tricky.
