35-year-old woman rented surfing equipment from the shop at noon, but did not return, even after it turned dark. Her belongings were found on the beach.
Police tried to track down the likely location of the woman using drift prediction software and sent patrol to the presumed site.
The woman, who did not know how to swim, was holding on to a rope at a laver farm, 2.3 kilometers away from the beach, waiting to be rescued.
