Two men who went into the sea in Dingle on an inflatable mattress, had to be rescued by lifeboat earlier this afternoon.
The alarm was raised at around 2pm by a member of the public who spotted the men in difficulties in the water at Cooncrome.
Valentia Coastguard co-ordinated the rescue of the men, which involved a lifeboat and a local fishing vessel.

They were brought to safety, uninjured, at 2.45pm.
It's believed the inflatable the men used was a blow-up mattress purchased in a supermarket.
