I am going to black sea. now ive read an article that says that its dangerously polluted. should i not swim in it? sometimes i swallow a little sea water when wave hits me. is it okay?

Not a good idea: It is not a good idea to swim in, much less swallow, dangerously polluted water. You can visit and take in the views, but actually getting into the water would not be the safest.
