Fortunately, this incident ended successfully.
However, the lifeguards say that such incidents once again remind us that it is necessary to stay vigilant near water and never take your eyes off children even for a moment.
“Even on supervised beaches, the most important factor for children’s safety is adult attention,” the “Grinda” lifeguards remind parents and other adults spending time with children near bodies of water.
