The National Sea Rescue Institute had their hands full this weekend. Two people drowned in separate incidents in Gordon’s Bay.

The NSRI says the first body was discovered at Strand beach yesterday morning following a drowning incident the previous day.

The second body was recovered in Cool Bay following reports that five people were swept out to sea.

All five were out of the water but paramedics declared one person dead on the scene.

In another incident in Bakovern, a man was rushed to hospital following a near drowning.

He was brought to shore by law enforcement rescue swimmers and transported to hospital.
