#WATER SAFETY - Two teenage surfers have been honoured for their brave effort in rescuing a young boy from drowning earlier this year, The Irish Times reports.

Bernard Cahill, 17, and Donough Cronin, 16, from Ennis received Just in Time Awards at Irish Water Safety's annual awards ceremony in Dublin Castle on Tuesday.

The duo were recognised for going to the aid of nine-year-old Gearóid Rogers, who was caught in a rip current near Spanish Point with his father Ger.

The Rogers family paid tribute to the surfing teens at the ceremony, with Ger saying he and his son were "lucky to be alive" thanks to their actions.

A half-acre site in the picturesque environs of Spanish Point, now on the market for €400,000, could prove to be a dream investment.

The site in Ballycotton, Co Cork, which is the former location of the Spanish Point Restaurant and guest accommodation, comes with direct access to the foreshore and has full planning permission for 15 apartments.

Viewing is strictly by appointment only with sole selling agents McCarthy & McGrath Auctioneers of Midleton, Co Cork.
