And there has been a second drowning in Noosa in the last three days. Yesterday morning, Queensland Surf Life Saving reported they had pulled a man unconscious from the water at Noosa Heads.
For 40 minutes, lifeguards and paramedics attempted to resuscitate the man, however they were unsuccessful.
Surf Life Saving is urging the public to swim between the flags and take extra precautions when entering the water, as more swimmers flock to the beach with summer approaching.
