Navigating Peril: Modern Rescue and the History of Safety in False Bay

by Sizwe Dlamini
August 24, 2025

False Bay is a wild and beautiful place where the ocean can change quickly from calm to dangerous. When a couple capsized their surf ski in rough waves, modern rescue teams sprang into action using smart tools like the SafeTrx app, GPS, and years of volunteer skill to find and save them fast. This mix of old courage and new technology shows how sea rescue here has grown from simple signals to hightech lifesaving. Every rescue reminds us how important it is to respect the sea and be prepared for its surprises.
