Earlier, on Friday at 10pm, the
TVLB was paged by the Coastguard to assist paramedics after a person suffered a head injury on a boat on the Tyne.
Peter Lilley, a captain with the
TVLB whose team worked on the shore to spot the teenager, said: "She was unconscious and not breathing when she was found in the water and CPR was started straight away."
Peter Lilley,
TVLB, said: "As the local coastal search and rescue team we spend a lot of time along our coastline - whether that be training, on safety patrols, or attending callouts - of which we receive around 120 a year.
The
TVLB crew managed to find the youngster and safely led her to the lifeboat, which then took her ashore.
The call-out was one of four made to the
TVLB within 17 hours across Friday night and Saturday morning.
TVLB captain Peter Lilley said: "We got a call from the police who were concerned about the safety of an 18-year-old female along the Whitley Bay coast.
Although the vehicle was above the high-water mark,
TVLB members agreed to assist the driver and were able to move the car to the access ramp at the south end of the beach.
