Stranded kayakers rescued off Welsh coast as RNLI issues summer water sports warning
Paddleboarders and kayakers are being warned to stay safe this summer after an increase in the number of calls to rescue people taking part in water sports.
The RNLI has teamed up with British Canoeing to encourage those using kayaks, canoes or paddleboards to make safety a priority as they prepare for an increase in visitors to the coast.
As part of the campaign, the charity has shared footage of a dramatic sea rescue, off the coast of Holyhead, Wales.
The number of people in the UK and Ireland whose lives were saved by crews while kayaking or canoeing more than doubled last year and there was a 21 per cent increase in callouts to people on paddleboards.
