Coastguard

The coastguard is a maritime organization responsible for ensuring safety at sea, rescuing people in distress, and enforcing maritime laws along coastlines and waterways. They monitor maritime traffic, respond to emergencies like shipwrecks or medical incidents, and work to prevent illegal activities such as smuggling or illegal fishing. Coastguards often collaborate with other emergency services, naval forces, and government agencies to protect lives, property, and the environment in maritime regions. Their role is vital for maintaining safety, security, and environmental protection in coastal and open-sea areas.
