Main beach is usually fine during day, lots of people around. But if no lifeguard and you're not strong swimmer, maybe stay close to shore or wait a bit. Currents can surprise. Many solo girls swim but stay aware.

I swam earlier, was okay but waves a bit stronger than I expected. Stay near other people.

Daytime main beach is generally safe. Just don't go far out alone. People around help if anything.
