A kayaker was found safe and well off the coast of Donegal this morning after a search operation was launched.
The alarm was raised when the kayaker did not return to base at the expected time.
Members of the Bunbeg Coast Guard and the Rescue 118 helicopter were called into action to search off the coast of Gaoth Dobhair.
Thankfully the emergency services were stood down at around 11:30am, after the kayaker was located safe and well on nearby Inis Sionnaigh island.
