These dramatic rescues reveal a worrying public ignorance: a Bangor University survey found 40% of people don’t understand tides, and just 25% can read tide charts. Over the past decade, UK and Irish RNLI crews have handled nearly 8,000 such strandings, saving over 450 lives. The key takeaway? Always check tide times before heading to the coast — and if you’re cut off, call 999 for the Coastguard, not your own bravery.
