A woman who lost her phone at sea was stunned after it washed ashore in full working order more than a year later. Clare Atfield, 39, dropped her Apple iPhone 8+ while paddleboarding.
She fell off her board on August 4, 2021, and the phone sunk under the waves and was presumed lost. It was tucked into a waterproof phone bag and now incredibly Clare has it back.
The phone washed up on a nearby beach undamaged 460 days later on November 7 this year and was found by a dog walker. He managed to track Clare down and now she has her mobile and precious photos back.
