That looks like news reporting, not an editorial as what the OP posted apparently is.
It seems to me that there’s no difference between Muslims needing to wash their feet, and Jewish ladies wanting to enjoy a swim away from ‘the male gaze’.
(I wonder if Muslim women ever swim; and if they would also like safe and segregated accommodations...)

Muslim women do swim, with long dress and Hijabs on. I see this in Orange County at a mothers beach.
