Emergency crews have rescued three young men trapped on cliffs near The Pillars, off the Esplanade, Mt Martha.
A fence limiting access to the internationally-renowned cliff jumping spot was recently removed and Mornington Peninsula Shire is awaiting a report before deciding if it will be erected again next summer.
About seven rescue vehicles and their crews responded to a call for help at the cliff just after 4pm today (Friday).
