The inshore lifeboat was called to help rescue three people in difficulties in the water.
They were then airlifted to hospital where sadly a 14 year old girl passed away.
An 18 year old remains in critical condition and I believe the third casualty is no longer in danger.
Can only imagine what the family must be going through.
Thoughts and Prayers for the family at this time.

I watched this on BBC news this morning apparently the sea has very strong under currents and a similar situation arose last year when a fifteen year old lost his life .
Our thoughts are with the family at this sad time
