Another dramatic rescue in Plettenberg Bay

The NSRI at Plettenberg Bay has again appealed to bathers to be extremely careful of rip tides after a German couple had to be rescued at Lookout Beach. The station commander Ray Farnham has issued a number of warnings during the past week after huge sharks were spotted in the area and massive swells were experienced off swimming beaches. Some ten people have been rescued in the past few days in the Plettenberg Bay area. The German couple was eventually saved from the surf by Municipal Pro lifeguards David Isaacs, Gavin Isaacs and Denzel Sauls. The three braved the exceptionally strong rip tide to bring the couple to safety. Farnham praised the three lifeguards for risking their own lives in the dangerous conditions.
