A young man's body was recovered from the sea on New year's Eve, the Sydney Morning Frontier reported.
This coast, just a few hundred meters from the golden beach of Frazer Park, is Snapper Point..
There are steep volcanic rocks all over the place, and sharp jagged rocks are enough to pierce sneakers.
"We stood high and watched them running back and forth to avoid the waves," Stone said. "the one-meter-high waves were surging on the reef. They saw the helicopter hovering over the sky and watched the young man's body be pulled ashore.
Stone, director of lifeguard services at LakeMacquarie City Council, has held the position for more than a decade.
He was angered by the activity on the beach, where 13 people have drowned and at least 16 people have died in a decade since 2010, three kilometres south of the coast of Catherine Hill Bay.
Not long ago, a 45-year-old woman went fishing with her husband on the beach and eventually died.
Fortunately, rescue agencies also found her body, where many of the fishermen buried in the sea couldn't even find it.
It has become a "place of death" for inexperienced anglers.
In 2011, a family of five drowned here.
A year later, three more young people from LakeMacquarie died here.
Locals say it has a lot to do with a lack of understanding of the terrain, and it turns out that many of the victims are from Sydney and are Asian.
