Surf Life Saving Northern Region was alerted at approximately 2.40pm by Coastguard Northern Region to the plight of two male divers in their 20s who had become separated from their boat off Ti Point near Omaha Beach. The Police Eagle helicopter was asked to help locate the divers in the water and did so shortly after that, dropping them a flotation device. Lifeguards in an IRB from Omaha SLSC were able to locate the divers around 3pm and return them safely to their boat. No medical care was required.
