Derrynane Inshore Rescue CRBI

Derrynane Inshore Rescue CRBI Covering Kenmare Bay into Kenmare, the northern Beara Peninsula and south Kerry, Derrynane Inshore Rescue is part of the Community Rescue Boat Ireland.

Derrynane Inshore Rescue Service is a voluntary group set up to provide an emergency lifeboat service to the Kenmare Bay community. We are a 24 hour station on call from Valentia Coastguard on a beeper system. The area we cover is from Ballinskelligs Bay, up down the Kenmare River, also covering the West Cork side as well as far as Dursey island. On average we have about 11 callouts a year mostly

in the summer season, in saying that we have had about 4 or 5 callouts in recent times in the winter months too. We assist with Search and Rescue but unfortunately sometimes it is a recovery and also cover any water based occasions such as Triathlons, Regatta’s and fishing competitions. In 2004 we built our Station House in which the boat is housed and is launched from.

🪼 Jellyfish Guide for Irish Beaches 🌊

👍 Please Share

With the warm weather and more people heading to the coast, it’s worth knowing which jellyfish you might come across around Ireland this summer.

Some species, such as the Lion’s Mane Jellyfish, can deliver very painful stings, while others are completely harmless.

✅ If you’re heading for a swim:
• Keep an eye out for jellyfish in the water.
• Avoid touching stranded jellyfish, as they can still sting.
• If stung, leave the water safely and seek assistance from a lifeguard if available.

Take a moment to check out this handy guide before your next trip to the beach. Stay safe and enjoy the sunshine! ☀️🌊🪼
