Both of Tenby's lifeboats were launched on August 30, after a report that a child was missing on Tenby's South beach, having last been seen in the sea.
The volunteer crew were quickly on scene and were tasked to perform shoreline searches from Castle beach, up towards Giltar, with RNLI lifeguards searching from the shore. The Y-boat was also launched from the Haydn Miller with two crew aboard to provide an extra asset for the search.
Within minutes of being launched, the crew of the Y-boat located the missing child swimming close in to the shore on South beach. He was taken into the care of the lifeguards, before being returned to his relieved family.
