A lifeboat came to the rescue after a vehicle and its occupants were reported stranded on the Holy Island Causeway.
The Seahouses Inshore Lifeboat was launched to the scene from 11:43am today (January 2) following a report to the UK Coastguard that a car and its occupants had been cut off from land while attempting to cross the causeway outside of the safe crossing times.
A coastguard team from Holy Island was also mobilised to the scene on the causeway where the stranded people were thankfully brought to safety. Their car will also be able to be moved as soon as the tide recedes.
