Swimmers Rescued From Sea Cave At Caves Beach

BY IAN CROUCH

Four young men have been rescued from a sea cave near Caves Beach.

The group entered the water at Pinnys Beach at about midday on Sunday and swam to the cave but got stuck.

As high tide and darkness approached around 4pm, a 5th member of the group, a 30-year-old man, used a boogie board to make it out of the cave.

He climbed to the top of a cliff and called emergency services.

Surf lifesavers used a jet ski and an inflatable boat to rescue the group, who were treated by paramedics on Caves Beach.
