A man has died in front of shocked beachgoers at a popular holiday spot.
Emergency services were called to Umina Beach on the NSW central coast shortly after 7pm on Sunday evening after reports of a man unresponsive and not breathing.
The man could not be resuscitated despite the desperate efforts of paramedics.
A NSW Police spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia that “the incident is being treated as a medical episode at this stage.”

Harrowing photos from the cordoned off crime scene show officers surrounding the body lying in the middle of a car park, covered with a sheet under a tent.
A woman was heard crying inconsolably, while other members of the group were visibly shaken with their hands on their knees.
NSW Police will prepare a report for the coroner.
