Shout, reach and throw - if you see someone struggling in the water this summer.
Water Safety Ireland is advising people to shout for attention, reach with a stick or piece of clothing or throw a floatation device if you come across a swimmer in difficulty.
Water Safety Awareness Week is highlighting the fact that 118 people drown in Irish waters every year.
Spokesperson Roger Sweeney says everyone should enjoy the water, in a safe manner.
