The safest way to test for strong currents is to: swim as far as you can from the shore until the water pulls you along ask a friend to go in the water and see what direction she travels watch the movement of a stick or a leaf on the water wade in the water and see if you are pulled in any direction

Answer:

Watch the movement of a stick or a leaf on the water

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the safest method of testing for the strength and/or direction of a strong current. The other options involve putting you (option 1 and option 4) or a friend (option 2) at risk. It is never safe to swim in a current that is unknown even if you (or a friend) is a good swimmer.

Before going into the beach, it would be better to check the water conditions by checking the beach forecast .Another way accidents then can be prevented when swimming is by being responsible. One of the safest way to test the strong currents is to watch the movement of a stick or a leaf on the water.
