Surf Life Saving NSW chief executive Steven Pearce issued a stark warning.

“If anyone’s thinking of heading into the surf this morning, anywhere along the northern beaches, think again,” he said.

“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.”

Northern Beaches Council later confirmed beaches would begin reopening ahead of the Australia Day long weekend.

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.
