A major search is under way for a woman kayaker who has gone missing off the coast of north Wales.
The 53-year-old, from Shrewsbury, Shropshire, was last seen heading through rocks at Starvation Island, Anglesey, at about 1430 BST on Sunday.
The woman, who is thought to be an experienced kayaker, became separated from the four people she was with in bad weather off Rhoscolyn beach.
The alarm was raised at 1930 BST after her companions became concerned.
Holyhead Coastguard said a 60-mile area had been searched and the search would resume at first light – about 0630 BST.
Three rescue teams, three lifeboats and two helicopters have been involved in the search.
The coastguard said North Wales Police had been in contact with the woman’s family.
