Is It Safe To Swim In The Ocean in Guatemala?

The safety of swimming depends on where you are and when you are swimming. The beaches along the Pacific Coast are usually safe, although they become more dangerous when the tides are changing; this is especially true at Monterrico. The Caribbean Coast is usually much calmer and is nearly always safe for swimming.
