Thank you for your message and sharing your concerns. I should say that you are not alone. Lots of kids have the same issues and it is perfectly normal that she feels like that.
During our sailing trip in Santorini, you only swim in deep water as for safety reasons the boat is not allowed to go near the beach. Kids with similar fears use the life jackets while swimming or relax on the boat, sunbathe and admire the view during the swimming breaks. A sailing experience in Santorini is one of the MUST DO things for anyone to do - experienced swimmer or not swimmer at all :-)
