A dog walker and three dogs have been rescued from mud as the tide approached at Bolton-le-Sands.
The Morecambe hovercraft and inshore lifeboat were both launched at 6.30pm on Wednesday.
A spokesperson for Morecambe RNLI said: "At 6.30pm both the Inshore Rescue Hovercraft (IRH) and Inshore Rescue Lifeboat (ILB) launched on service to reports of a person stuck in the mud near Bolton Le Sands with an incoming tide approaching.
"On arrival to the scene, there was a person and three dogs needing assistance from the volunteer crew members. The ILB crew assisted with the dogs whilst the IRH crew assisted the person in difficulty. Once the casualty was safe the IRH crew transported them to the safety of the shore to the awaiting HM Coastguard team.
"The bay is renowned for its mud flats and ever changing sands. But the UK also has some of the biggest tidal ranges in the world.
"To avoid getting cut off by the tide:
* Before you head out, make sure it's safe. Check the tide tables.
* While you're out, be aware of your surroundings and the tide's direction.
"If you find yourself in trouble within Morecambe Bay, please call 999 and ask for the coastguard."
