Several people were assessed this morning after their boat capsized in the surf at the Umkomaas River Mouth in Umkomaas, KwaZulu Natal.
ER24 paramedics, along with other services, arrived on the scene to find several people walking around the beach near the capsized boat, which lay in the water.
Paramedics assessed several patients, who had been on the boat at the time, and were found to have sustained minor injuries.
The patients were treated for their injuries and three later transported to a nearby private hospital for further treatment.
Local authorities were on the scene for further investigations.
