Rescue

We stay around the corner from an area called Queen's Bath  The location is at the end of a popular hike, but is often off limits because novices frequently endanger themselves when the surf is high. 

The arrow in the satellite map below points to an area to the left of the bath. It also gets tourists in trouble.

The last time we were here we witnessed the rescue of someone who could got down the cliff, but could not get back up. A helicopter lowered someone with a basket and brought the man up. I took pictures. 

Today may have been a repeat. No basket, but I could see someone being lowered on a line.
