A coastal waters wind warning has been issued for New South Wales waters between Point Danger and Gabo Island.

The weather bureau expects dangerous surf conditions, hazardous for coastal activities such as swimming, surfing and rock fishing.

South to southwesterly up to 30 knots are predicted, with combined sea and swell up to 4 metres.

A complex low-pressure system over the southern Tasman Sea is moving steadily east. A high south of the Bight is extending a ridge into New South Wales. A south to southwesterly airstream generated between these systems is expected to gradually ease today.
