RNLI Cleethorpes crew was called out yesterday evening.
The lifeboat was launched just before 5.00pm yesterday to rescue a young woman with a baby and two young children.
The highest predicted tide of the year was on the way in and the family were stuck on a patch of mud. By the time they had managed to free themselves they had been cut off by the tide.
It took 20 minutes to reach them and get them safely ashore and by that time the water had risen another metre.
Always Check the tide times.
Always make sure you check the tide times before you go out on the beach. If you get into trouble or see someone in difficulty call 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
