The Coastguard is a maritime security organization responsible for ensuring the safety and protection of coastal areas and waterways. They conduct search and rescue operations, enforce maritime laws, and provide assistance to vessels in distress. Their duties also include monitoring environmental protection and responding to emergencies at sea. In many countries, the Coastguard operates under the government and collaborates with other agencies, such as the Navy and Fisheries Department. They use various resources, including ships, aircraft, and trained personnel, to carry out their missions effectively and maintain safe navigation for all maritime activities.
