Tide Strands Two People at Cayton Bay

Two people were cut off by the tide on Saturday, triggering the launch of Scarborough RNLI’s inshore lifeboat.

The emergency vessel launched at about 1.15pm, an hour and a half before high tide, and sped to Cayton Bay.

The crew of three volunteers took the two people aboard and transferred them to the safety of the nearby beach, where coastguards were waiting to check them over.

Scarborough RNLI advises that everybody walking on the coast should try to be aware of the tide times, which are available online.
