If you put it in wrong, you will feel it. When a tampon is in correctly, you cannot feel it - so you will know if you have done it incorrectly.
Tampons are the ideal solution for active girls who play sports and especially swim, and even for other girls they are MUCH more comfortable than pads, they are cleaner than pads, and much more environmentally friendly than pads.
Tampons do not hurt, and they are not at all uncomfortable, though sometimes girls are a little bit uncomfortable with the idea of inserting them at first.
One way to get past your fear of using a tampon, is to become better acquainted with yourself. Some time when you are not on your period, but before your next period, and when you have some time to be alone, take a few minutes to explore and see what the whole area is about. This is something that is essential for any girl.
Get comfortable, use a hand mirror, and with your other hand spread yourself open and look around. It is not dirty, or ugly, or wrong in any way, it is your body, you should know what it is about and how it works. When you are comfortable, slip a finger inside a few inches.
Next time you have a period, you will be ready to give a tampon a try, and will have a good idea what sort of experience to expect. It is different, but it is not bad. Honestly a tampon is WAY better than a pad ever was. Don’t feel bad if you don’t get it quite right the first few times you try it – it can take a bit of practice. Just keep trying until you get it right. When it is right you won’t be able to feel it at all.
Using a tampon with an applicator is easier at first, but I think the OB without the applicator is easier, more comfy to put in, and much better for the environment. You will have to pick for yourself.
Which ever one you get, follow the instructions on the box, and do not leave it in for longer than the instructions say is safe.

If it goes in at the wrong angle, nothing will really happen, swimming or not--it will just be very uncomfortable. If you don't put it in far enough and go swimming, it may absorb the water, but will still not cause anything to "happen". Again, it will just be uncomfortable.

1. If you put a tampon in wrong... you will leak. When you get out of the pool there will be a huge red blotch in your swimsuit.
2. If you put in right but not far enough... you wouldn't leak as much as #1.

I think the best thing for you to do is use a fresh clean pad when you get into the water! I never trusted those tampons, Even though they are comfortable they can cause a woman/girl, to get infections, I know that they caused me to have them! Also you don't bleed when you are in water anyway. So I just stopped using the tampons and started using the pads.

you would feel it if it were not put in far enough.

you might leak, but you'll probably know if it's not in far enough because it won't be comfortable to wear.
