The organisations said there had been a “significant rise” in maritime recreational incidents over the weekend due to the good weather.
Eugene Clonan, Coast Guard chief of operations , said there had been a noticeable increase in the number of calls over the weekend,
“Sunday was particularly busy with 23 calls in response to maritime recreational incidents,” he said.
Gareth Morrison, RNLI lifesaving delivery manager, said there had also been an increase of callouts for lifeboats.
“Many of these incidents relate to leisure activities where a nice day out has unfortunately ended in a call for help,” he said.
“ Seeking some simple advice before you take to the water or coastline could make all the difference.”
