This large reflective sign, also has a couple of orange lights, that flash, and are powered/charged, from a solar panel facing north. The warning sign faces south west, and reads:

    WARNING
THE WATERS OF THIS
 BAR ARE DANGEROUS
   NAVIGATE WITH CARE
WEARING LIFEJACKETS
   IS COMPULSORY
    PENALTIES APPLY

Aerial views, from GoogleEarth, or SIX Maps NSW clearly show the treacherous nature of the sand bar, that frequently shifts in storms and floods.
