The U.S. Coast Guard rescued a surfer stranded at sea on rocks at the edge of Ecola State Park on Saturday. Alex and Nanuette Lundeen, witnesses to the rescue, said that the surfer is lucky to be alive. “This guy was out there just getting absolutely pummeled by the water,” said Alex Lundeen. “This was not a good situation to be in; I mean this guy was holding on for dear life. His life was absolutely in danger, 100%.” Cannon Beach Fire Chief Marc Reckmann said that two brothers were out surfing off Indian Beach when surf conditions worsened. The brothers — adults who haven’t been identified — began swimming to shore when one of the brothers ended up getting pulled out to sea. The other brother made it back safely and called for help.
