The search continues for a missing man who disappeared in waters off Victoria’s southwest after another was found dead.
Emergency services will resume their search after the man vanished in waters off Gellibrand Lower about 3pm on Sunday.
Police were alerted to five swimmers missing and three were found stranded on a cliff face between Wreck Beach and Devils Kitchen about 4.30pm, while the body of a fourth man was also located.
The fifth man is still missing.
“A 30-year-old Sunshine North man was located deceased on the rocks and the body was retrieved. The search for the other man continues this morning,” Victoria police said on Monday.
It follows a separate incident involving a man who died after falling overboard on a Spirit of Tasmania ship.
Police say the ship had left its dock in Geelong about 8pm on Sunday and was an hour into its journey to Devonport when the passenger went over.
The ship was sent back to Geelong as emergency crews began searching for the man before locating his body in the water.
Police say the man’s death is not being treated as suspicious.
