Search Called Off After Two Men Vanish Near Hafan Y Mor Beach in Wales
Two men disappeared near Hafan Y Mor in Pwllheli after heading to the beach with inflatable kayaks on July 21. on Tuesday, July 21, near the shoreline.
A search operation near Hafan Y Mor in Pwllheli has been suspended after two men went missing while attempting to use inflatable kayaks at the beach. The pair, identified as Simon and Connor, were last spotted around 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 21, near the shoreline. Authorities from North Wales Police and HM Coastguard initiated a coordinated response, though the Coastguard effort has now been stood down pending further developments.
The Disappearance
Simon and Connor were reported missing after they were seen in the vicinity of Hafan Y Mor beach with the intention of launching inflatable kayaks. The alarm was raised when the men failed to return from their planned beach outing. North Wales Police launched inquiries and coordinated with HM Coastguard to conduct searches in the locality. Chief Inspector Ian Roberts confirmed that officers were actively pursuing leads and examining the surrounding area.
Public Appeal and Wider Search Efforts
The investigation widened beyond the immediate Pwllheli location. Shell Island campsite, situated further along the North Wales coastline, issued a public alert asking beachgoers to report any inflatable kayaks discovered on nearby shores within a 48-hour window. The campsite urged anyone finding such equipment to contact either the Coastguard or emergency services directly. This broader geographical search acknowledged the possibility that tidal currents or weather conditions could have moved the kayaks considerable distances from their point of entry.
Current Status
The Coastguard search operation has been stood down, though North Wales Police confirmed they remain engaged in the investigation. A statement from police indicated that further details would be released as the situation develops. Anyone with information about the missing men or sightings from the evening of July 21 can contact North Wales Police via their live webchat service or by telephone on 101, referencing incident number O118860.
