Wind picks up significantly in the afternoon, making swimming rough and creating litter; morning visits offer calmer conditions.
Wear water shoes for rocky sections

Check water quality before swimming
Most reviewers report crystal-clear water, but occasional reports describe dirty water with debris, particularly near the river mouth.
