A coast guard is a maritime security organization responsible for a wide range of duties, which vary by country. These duties can range from heavily armed military operations with customs and security functions to volunteer search and rescue operations with no law enforcement authority. While distinct from a country's navy and transit police in most cases, there can be functional overlap. Essentially, a coast guard's role is to ensure maritime safety and security within a nation's jurisdiction.
