Answer:

the best place to find a swimming hole with sandy beach will be (a)-a point bar on the inside bend of, because meandering rivers deposits the sediments they carry downstream on an inner, convex bank which is typically a point bar. This allow the formation of sand point bars that could be used as a beaches.
