Maritime Rescue and the Mossos d'Esquadra police force launched a major search operation this Wednesday afternoon at La Pineda beach in Vila-seca to locate a missing individual.

The search began after emergency services discovered an empty kayak drifting near the shore. Police sources indicate the incident is being treated as a voluntary death, as a note was reportedly left behind by the individual.
Resources from Tarragona have been deployed to the area, including a helicopter, several rescue vessels, and specialized divers who are currently scouring the seabed and surrounding waters.
