Man found dead on Sunshine Coast beach

A man found dead on a Queensland beach may have been out fishing, police say.

A passer-by made the grim discovery of the man's body at Warana Beach, just south of the Sunshine Coast, around 5.45am on Tuesday.

Sunshine Coast Senior Sergeant Stephen Hall said the unidentified man, believed to be aged in his early 50s, was found fully clothed.

"The man was wearing clothes consistent with that of a fisherman," he told the Sunshine Coast Daily.

Police say the death is not being treated as suspicious.
