A spokesperson from the Southport Offshore Rescue Trust said: "The pagers were again activated by the Coastguard Operations Centre in Holyhead, who requested the quad bikes to conduct a search for two youths missing in the dunes on Formby Beach.
Our quads arrived on scene and quickly located the casualties who were disorientated and dehydrated. After ensuring they were well, the quads took them off the beach to the waiting Southport Mobile Coastguard Rescue Team at Victoria Road."
