New Coastguard Website Launches to Boost UK Coastal Safety
Heroism from Shetland to the Isles of Scilly
The UK’s maritime search and rescue service has launched a brand-new website at hmcoastguard./where/123. It showcases the brave efforts of Coastguard teams responding to emergency 999 calls along Britain’s coastline — from the far north in Shetland all the way down to the Isles of Scilly.
One-Stop Hub for Coastal Safety Advice
Visitors can now find crucial coastal safety tips all in one place. The site helps holidaymakers and day-trippers prepare before heading to the shore — covering everything you need to know to stay safe by the sea.
Recruitment and Future Plans
The new website isn’t just about safety. It is set to play a key role in the Coastguard’s social media efforts and will be a trusted online source, complementing the Maritime and Coastguard Agency’s official GOV.UK content.
Thinking about joining the Coastguard? Whether you want to be a volunteer or pursue a full-time career, the site provides all the info you need to get started.
