The woman managed to get to shore herself but the man is still missing.
A search was called off overnight due to 'atrocious' weather conditions with big swells and high winds hampering efforts to find him.
Police, SES and SES and the Volunteer Marine Rescue resumed a full land, sea and air search on Sunday.
The woman is recovering in hospital.
