New rescue in the waters of Penyal d'Ifac Rock by the Calpe Maritime Surveillance and Intervention Unit

The Calpe Maritime Surveillance and Intervention Unit (UVIM) carried out another rescue this morning in the same area of Penyal d'Ifac where on Wednesday it assisted a man who fell into the sea while trying to access a cove. On this occasion, a couple of tourists who were paddle surfing called for help from officers who were patrolling the area after a wave swept one of them against the rocks, causing injuries that left him unable to leave the area on his own.

One of the officers jumped into the sea to rescue the two swimmers and take them to the boat, while the other officer remained in control of the boat due to the rocky nature of the area. The injured tourist suffered bruises to her legs from the collision with the rocks.
