A search commenced through the dunes opposite the camp site, and team members quickly located the six-year-old child in the heavy buckthorn.
The incident comes just two days after the Mablethorpe Coastguard was called to an incident in which an 80-year-old woman had fallen on the tunnel run of the main prom, and had suffered a head injury.
Due to the injury being more serious than first thought, a rescue helicopter was used to aid extraction to hospital.
