Simply apply to have a bouy of some sort put there or a designated swim area with ropes and floats!
I am sure that there is/was not someone using a snorkel at all times that you had the diver flag out. As you yourself stated.
I also agree that there are some irresponsible people out there. However, if you want to protect the children (which you should) apply for the appropriate measures.

Are you saying you would never break the rules to protect a child? How about speeding through a no wake zone to get a dying child medical attention? I did say I was talking about extreme circumstances. There are situations where common sense and good judgment are more important than the letter of the law.
I have not used a dive flag in many years, as I said they are counterproductive. But when I did, the flag was only in the water when people were swimming.
As I said in an earlier post, an inflatable boat and a mooring work better.
