Two kayakers were airlifted from Lough Swilly last night after getting into difficulty in mud.

The Rescue 118 helicopter was tasked from Sligo and the Greencastle Coastguard Unit also travelled to their aid after 9pm on Wednesday.

The kayakers were spared from any injury as they remained in their kayaks until help arrived.

The helicopter extracted both of the kayakers and transported them to the Letterkenny Airfield shortly after 10pm.

The two people were able to travel home after paramedics confirmed that they did not need any medical assistance.
