Two bodies have been found following an urgent search at a popular beach in Sydney’s south-east. 

Emergency services responded to reports of a concern for welfare at Little Bay Beach at 11.10am on Sunday.

A number of items were found on rocks in the area by police. 

‘A short time later, a body was found near the rocks. No further details are known at this stage,’ a NSW Police spokesman said.

The police search then found a second body near the rocks at about 1.40pm. 

Police are yet to divulge what items had been found.

The bodies have yet to be formally identified.  

Police Marine Area Command and a helicopter from Polair kept searching the area for a short time after the second body was found.

But lifeguards have since told Daily Mail the search has concluded.

Local spearfisherman, Sean Park, said at least one person was swept off the rocks on the northern side of the beach.

‘I was walking to the north side but walked back because the waves were too big,’ he said.

‘On my way back people just started screaming “man in water”.’

‘About 20 minutes later a helicopter rocked up and one of them was taken up.’

Anyone with information about the incident are being asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
