Morecambe RNLI has released a video showing how fast the Morecambe Bay tide can come in after the hovercraft was called out three times over the Easter weekend.
The Morecambe hovercraft was called to Arnside at 11.20am on Easter Sunday (April 17) while out on a training exercise after reports of people cut off by the tide.
After arriving at the scene, the crew advised the people in danger to make their way to the shore to avoid being cut off by the fast incoming tide.
Afterwards, the hovercraft was called to Silverdale due to more people who were cut off by the tide but after a search of the shoreline nobody was found.
Then on Easter Monday (April 18) the crew was called out again to a report of people cut off by the incoming tide.
As the volunteers prepared the craft for launch, the coastguard stood the vessel down as the people were reported safe on the shore.
"We would like to remind the public of the dangers of the fast incoming tide within the bay," said an RNLI spokesperson.
"We advise that you check the tide times before walking in the bay and if you do venture out on the sands, make sure you have a charged phone so you can call for assistance if needed. Phone 999 and ask for the Coastguard."
The RNLI has also released a video showing how fast the tide can come in.
