A woman has died during a scuba diving course at Gordons Bay in eastern Sydney on Saturday.
Surf Live Saving NSW crews rushed to the scene in a helicopter, jet-ski and inflatable boat as ambulance crews were called just after 9.30am to reports a scuba diver was in need of assistance at Clovelly Beach.
Rod de Groot, the operations manager of the Pro Dive Coogee centre with whom the woman was diving, told
Nine News that the woman was found unconscious in the water.
He said she was not breathing and her regulator, the device that controls the pressure of breathing gas, was out of her mouth.
"We brought her to the surface, brought her into shore. On the way in we were doing CPR," Mr de Groot said.
Members of the dive course had pulled the unconscious woman from the water and had started performing CPR by the time paramedics arrived, NSW Ambulance Inspector Karl Cronan said.
"Our paramedics took over and did everything they could, working tirelessly to provide life-saving treatment and resuscitation before transporting her to hospital in critical condition," he said.
The woman, aged 53, was taken to Prince of Wales Hospital but she could not be revived.
