Pembrokeshire's RNLI lifeguards have had a full and varied number of incidents to deal with on some of the county's beaches during the past week or so.

Lifeguards at Tenby's South Beach were called into action when they were packing up for the day on Sunday, when at 6 pm they were summoned to assist a man suffering a heart attack just 20 yards off the beach on the path to the Kiln Park holiday camp.

Lifeguards John Johnston and Rhys Hughes dealt with the incident, which eventually saw the casualty airlifted to hospital.

Earlier in the week, Angle RNLI all-weather lifeboat towed a nine-metre cabin cruiser named 'Due South', with four people on board, to safety in Neyland, after the vessel reported engine failure a mile south of 'Jack Sound', shortly before 3 pm on Tuesday, July 6.

The vessel had hit a rock whist travelling through the 'Sound', which resulted in her own lines becoming entangled in the propeller.

This subsequently resulted in the vessel being holed below the waterline.

RIB 'Cirtacita' initially took the cruiser in tow, before transferring this to the lifeboat, while Dale Coastguard Rescue team also attended the scene at Neyland to obtain incident details.

South Pembrokeshire's search and rescue units were called out shortly after 4.30 pm, on Tuesday, July 6, after an 11-year-old boy had absconded from a school party in Freshwater West, after a fall-out with other members of the party.

However, the child later voluntarily returned to the school party safely.

Units involved in the search were - the police, rescue helicopter R169, St. Govans, Manorbier and Castlemartin Coastguards, South Pembs sector manager and Freshwater West RNLI lifeguards.

Investigations were carried out on Wednesday, July 7, by MRCC Milford Haven after a boat trailer had been left in the trailer park at Saundersfoot for five days.

It was subsequently discovered that the owner from Cheshire, who had been staying in the Tenby area, claimed to have gone out in the boat on Saturday, but the main engine had broken down and he had limped into Tenby Harbour on auxiliary power.

After that, the boat had remained at Tenby awaiting repair.

Finally, late on Saturday afternoon, a fisherman off the Lydstep peninsula reported a broken down jet ski and a man waving for help on the Proud Giltar side of Lydstep Bay just after 5.30 pm.

Tenby RNLI inshore lifeboat and Tenby Coast Rescue Team were tasked, but the stranded man, who was from the Treharris area, had been towed ashore by another jet ski as the search and rescue units arrived on scene.
