Three young volunteer surf lifesavers helped rescue a kayaker whose vessel was sinking off the Bay of Plenty coast today.

Surf Life Saving New Zealand eastern regional manager Chaz Gibbons-Campbell said police contacted the organisation about 3pm after a witness reported a kayaker in trouble off Pukehina, east of Tauranga.
