Lifeboats News Release

Tenby's inshore lifeboat was requested to launch shortly before 9pm on Wednesday 23rd June, following a report that a paddleboarder was in difficulty off Amroth.

After a thorough search of the area, nothing was found apart from large floating log, which was towed ashore so that it didn't cause any issues for boats.

With nothing found and nobody reported missing, the lifeboat was stood down to return to station.
