Coast Guard Rescue Man Trapped on Cliffside

A man was rescued from a cliff ledge in Pembrokeshire’s Newgale Beach, in southwest Wales, on July 13.

The rescue was carried out by a local coast guard search and rescue helicopter originally responding to a distress call from three men who were cut off by the Newgale Beach tide. Two of the men were rescued by a coast guard lifeboat while the third, who had climbed the cliff to escape the rising tide, was saved by helicopter.
