Two kayakers have been assisted by the Lough Ree RNLI lifeboat.

The men left Coosan Point at lunchtime yesterday and a member of the public raised the alarm after they didn't return to their car after 90 minutes.

The crew began a search of the inner lakes at around 3pm and they spotted kayakers near Portaneena.

The men were found safe and well.

RNLI Volunteer Emmet Devereux is reminding lake users to double check the weather before they go out on the water.
