Shortly after 17:00 this evening we were called to reports that two persons and a dog were cut off by the tide at Llandudno's West Shore Sandbanks. We arrived on scene and quickly identified the need for the assistance of Llandudno's RNLI Inshore Lifeboat.
Whilst we waited for the launch of the ILB one team member made their way to the shoreline to try and gain the two's attention.
The lifeboat arrived at the West Shore, but before it could be launched into the water the two girls had started to wade across the channel.
The lifeboat crew waded out to the two girls, 11 and 13, to bring them across safely before handing them over to us. After making sure no medical assistance was required we gave safety advice and returned to station.
These two girls had a very lucky escape so please, if visiting West Shore, stay away from the lower part of the beach.
