A 75-year-old man has died after being pulled unconscious from the surf on the NSW north coast.
Emergency Services responded to reports a man was in trouble after being struck by a wave while swimming at Shelley Beach, Nambucca Heads, just after midday on Sunday.
Police say bystanders on the sand ran into the surf and brought the man to the beach.
Paramedics treated the man on the beach before taking him to Coffs Harbour Hospital where he later died.
The man’s death comes after a man and woman in their 40s drowned last week at an unpatrolled beach on the Central Coast.
