Surf Life Saving NSW chief executive Steven Pearce issued a stark warning.
“We have such poor water quality that’s conducive to bull shark activity.”
“We have two people critically injured in hospital this morning. Just go to a local pool, because at this stage, we’re advising that the beaches are unsafe.”
Mayor Sue Heins said conditions were being closely monitored.
“As always the number one message to beachgoers is to swim between the flags, follow the directions of our incredible lifesavers and lifeguards and avoid swimming at dawn and dusk,” she said.
