This might be a silly question, but coming in January as a solo traveller, love swimming in the sea, is it safe to leave basic belongings on the beach while i do that ?

From my observation, safety is not an issue, but considering big crowd of people, you never can be 100% sure. I recommend to walk to Kata Noi beach at 9.00, take the first row of sun bed and swim w.o. worry. You will see your belongings. As well, serving personal in Kata Noi looked to be much more nicer.
We are looking to visit with our 2 children at the end of May. They are keen to do water activities such as snorkelling, swimming and paddle boards. I have read that the sea is red flagged most days throughout the whole of the low season. Can anyone please advise? Obviously we will not swim if it’s not safe.

Kata beach is generally safe, and there are plenty of lifeguards about. But like most of Phuket, you do get regular thunderstorms, and when it is stormy the waves get bigger and the currents get stronger. When it gets dangerous the lifeguards put the red flags up. But sometimes it is only for a few hours, it really depends on the weather which can be quite changeable in May as it is the start of the rainy season. So, depending on how long you stay, you will probably get some calm sunny days and some rainy / stormy days.
