A woman tragically died after being rescued from the sea in cardiac arrest at Caleta de Fuste, Fuerteventura, despite immediate first aid and paramedic efforts. The incident occurred shortly after 1:00 pm on Tuesday, highlighting the critical importance of adhering to safety advice when swimming in open waters, even in popular and supervised resort areas.

This event follows recent similar emergencies in the Canary Islands, including a five-year-old girl who was successfully resuscitated after cardiac arrest in a hotel pool in Fuerteventura, and a holidaymaker revived after a near-drowning at Los Cristianos beach in Tenerife. These cases underscore how quickly water-related incidents can become life-threatening and the vital role of lifeguards and emergency responders in saving lives.
