The group were saved by locals from the West Wittering Windsurf Club as a Coastguard team from Selsey and Lifeboats from Hayling Island were called to the rescue.
One person was able to swim safely back to shore before members of the club paddled out to rescue the other person and five dogs.
A spokesperson for the Selsey Coastguard said: ‘The coast and the sea can catch you out whether you’re local or not.
