World Aquatics rulebook swimming — four strokes, a pace clock, and the gap between a club heat and an Olympic final. Competitive swimming is the measured, judged version of pool swimming: four strokes, relays, and a clock that records to hundredths. World Aquatics (FINA until 2022) writes the rulebook that clubs, schools and the Olympics share.
Most of the world’s racing happens in short-course 25-metre halls, not in Olympic finals. The skill ceiling in this atlas is high because technique, training load and race craft stack for a decade. Risk stays low relative to wreck or night diving: the hazards are overuse and the rare shallow-water dive, not current.
This chapter is a club-sport map, not a governing-body medical screen and not a live meet brief. Memberships and qualifying times belong to national federations. Municipal and club pools publish lane books before open-water leaps. Red Cross / federation lessons gate beginners — a dive card is not a pool pass.

Interactive Scenario & Decision Matrix
Select your current objective to inspect the recommended benchmark, threshold, and verification path.
The depth to respect is {depth}. Access score {access} does not raise it.
Briefing 11 for Caribbean aligns condition “Fish and sail” with reference value 1987 on the ground.
Caribbean: 1987 (2026)Risk mark {risk} means you stay inside {depth}, not past it.
Reading 12 of Caribbean uses “Cozumel and Cayman clubs” and figure 1987 as a checkable baseline.
Caribbean: 1987 (1960s)If you cannot keep {depth}, do not treat {name} as today’s session.
Atlas note 13 on Caribbean defines the operating range of 1987 when “Bonaire Marine Park” applies.
Caribbean: 1987 (1979)Reading 4 of Caribbean uses “Hol Chan” and figure 1979 as a checkable baseline.
Dossier 14 for Caribbean links case “Hol Chan” directly to metric 1979 (1987).

5-Step Execution & Verification Playbook
- Read the skill mark — Skill ceiling on this hub is {skill}/100 — editorial teaching, not a skills test score.
- Read the risk mark — Risk is {risk}/100 here. It compares topics in the atlas; it is not a live hazard bulletin.
- Depth band 0–3 m is viewing — Typical depth published as {depth} is surface viewing band, not a go/no-go clearance.
- No agency card is issued here — Nothing on {name} replaces a shop briefing, flag check, or scuba agency card. Close if you need certification advice.
- Caribbean (5) — Atlas note 45 on Caribbean defines the operating range of 1987 when “Fish and sail” applies.
Myth vs. Evidence Fact-Check
Are the skill, risk, and depth marks a dive clearance?
No. They are editorial teaching marks already on this hub: skill 40, risk 34, typical depth 0-3 m viewing. The envelope pins last versus this reading. It is not a shop briefing or a safe-today stamp.
What does the 0-3 m viewing band decide?
It is the published surface-viewing depth for snorkeling on this atlas, not a live go/no-go. Current, boats, and park flags sit in the safety chapter.
Do I need a scuba agency card to snorkel?
This hub's quick facts say none required. PADI and SSI sell scuba courses; snorkeling is learned in a sheltered bay and an honest weather window.
What is last versus this envelope for?
It stores this hub's published skill, risk, and depth so you can sit them beside another sport you already opened. Compare marks. Do not treat the pair as clearance.
