A man has died after getting into difficulty in the sea on Sunday, emergency services have confirmed.
Sussex Police said it was called to Camber Sands beach in East Sussex just before 19:00 BST on Sunday evening to reports that three people had got into difficulty.
An 18-year-old man was pulled from the water about 30 minutes later, but despite attempts by paramedics, he was pronounced dead a short time later. Police said his next of kin have been informed.
Two other people - a 16-year-old boy and a 24-year-old man - safely returned to shore, the force added.
Police said there would be an increased emergency presence in the area
The three were known to each other and had travelled to the beach from London, according to police.
The coastguard also responded, along with Pett Level lifeboat and South East Coast Ambulance Service.
Stuart Ross Thomson said he was staying at property overlooking the beach with his family when the "harrowing" incident took place.
"It breaks my heart, to be fair. It's such a heartbreaking situation to watch," the former lifeguard said.
