A man who was dragged from the sea unconscious last week has died.
Anthony Gough, 32, from Blaenau Ffestiniog, was pulled from the sea near Gimblet Rock in Pwllheli on July 12.
He was flown to Ysbyty Gwynedd in a critical condition by search and rescue helicopter, but died in hospital on Thursday, July 14.
His death is not being treated as suspicious and an inquest will be held at a later date.
Emergency services rushed to the scene at about 6.40pm on July 12 after hearing reports that a man was “struggling” in the water.
North Wales Police and rescuers from Pwllheli RNLI performed CPR on Mr Gough until paramedics arrived.
A spokesman for Holyhead Coastguard said at the time that Pwllheli’s inshore lifeboat as well as Abersoch coastguard attended the incident.
