Three men and a seven-year-old boy have died in separate drowning incidents this weekend in Victoria and New South Wales, prompting authorities to urge people to take care near the water.
Police say he got into difficulty and disappeared in the river at about 6pm, leading to a large search effort involving police helicopters, divers and SES.
A body, believed to be the missing boy, was found on Sunday morning.
Three swimmers got into trouble in rough waters east of the mouth of the Gellibrand River about 10.40am.
They were rescued from the water, however a 35-year-old man died at the scene.
Two men on a private helicopter flying nearby landed their aircraft and helped to retrieve the swimmers from the river and perform CPR on the man.
In NSW, two rock fishers have drowned after being swept into the water.
