Crews from Branford Fire Department rescued three kayakers who were stuck in Long Island Sound and couldn't return to the shore on Sunday.
Firefighters said the kayakers had trouble returning to the shore because of the high winds and strong outgoing currents.
The kayakers were able to make it to the Three Sisters rocks, where they were picked up and returned to the shore by rescue crews, fire officials added.
One of the kayakers was taken to the hospital to be evaluated, crews said.
Fire officials remind anyone who uses small recreational watercraft that conditions on Long Island can change rapidly. They also advise anyone venturing out to wear life jackets and wet suits.
