Stornoway Coastguard was called in to help with a woman after she fell unconscious while swimming at Tokavaig.
The coastguard rescue helicopter, teams from Kyle and Portree and RNLI Mallaig were sent to help ambulance crews.
About two hours after receiving the call, a spokesman from the coastguard said the woman appeared to be “conscious and stable” and had been passed into the care of the ambulance service.
A spokesman from Stornoway Coastguard said: “We received a call from ambulance control that there was a wild swimmer who had come out of the water and was unconscious.
“We tasked our coastguard helicopter to it, Rescue 948 from Stornoway, Mallaig lifeboat, our coastguard teams from Kyle of Lochalsh and Portree, and our own senior coastal operations officer from Portree.
“She is out of the water and the ambulance is dealing with her.”
