Two bodies have been found at the northern tip of Bribie Island this morning.

POLICE believe a man and woman whose bodies were found on a Bribie Island beach this morning were dead for at least 24 hours and say they are treating the deaths as suspicious.

Senior Sergeant Scott Wiggins said there were injuries on the bodies that were yet to be explained.

The bodies were discovered about 8am by a turtle volunteer checking for nests, in an area not open to 4WD vehicles.

The site was three kilometres from the northern tip of the island.

Sgt Wiggins said the pair were wearing swimming gear and were found in the surf, while a jet ski was found on the calm Pumicestone Passage side of the island.

He said police had not yet been able to comment the jet ski with the couple but were trying desperately to identify them and contact their next of kin.

“By all accounts from locals in this area, it’s fairly common for people to park their tinnies or JetSki in the calm waters of Pumicestone Passage and walk across Bribie Island to the open side and go for a swim in the surf there,” he said.

Sgt Wiggins said no peresonal effects were found.

The bodies have been brought back to the mainland by police launch, which was met by undertakers at Golden Beach about 12.45pm.

“It’s a magic part of the world and it is a very sad thing for the community to have something like this happen,” Sgt Wiggins said.
