If it makes you feel better: when you're swimming, you're sweating buckets. So most are probably just dehydrated.
That was my first thought. When I was 15, I went to the doctor for vision loss and migraines. Always happened after surfing. He quickly pointed out that being in the water for hours and hours doesn't mean I'm not dehydrating and to come in for water breaks every couple of hours. Voila! Problems solved. Felt like an idiot.
Also, a lot of people, myself included, make it a point to go to the bathroom before swimming.
And I don't usually consume food or drinks until I am (almost) done with swimming. A four hour stretch of just recreational swimming and chilling is easy without food or drink.
The secret is to drink lots of water before going in. Then you can pee without worry.
