8 RESCUED AT PANTHER STATE BEACH 🚁 This evening just before 8pm, a person texted 911 reporting that 11 people were trapped in a cave near Davenport and the water was rising. It was reported that several of the people trapped did not know how to swim. CAL FIRE, Santa Cruz County Fire, Coast Guard, Santa Cruz City with one lifeguard, Santa Cruz Harbor Patrol, and CA State Parks lifeguard responded. The cave had two exits, either through the water to a beach with access to the bluffs, or out onto a pocket beach where the trail was two steep to get to the bluffs. The five people who could swim waded out of the cave with assistance from the lifeguards. The remaining three people on the beach who could not swim were hoisted by the Coast Guard to a nearby bluff. SAFETY MESSAGE: Always check local tide charts before heading out, as rising waters can rapidly trap you against coastal cliffs with no escape route. If you do become stranded by a high tide, move to the highest safe point and call 911 immediately—do not attempt to climb unstable cliffs or swim through heavy surf.
