Narrative:

During takeoff from sju on the ACONY2 departure after making a left hand turn out of 520 ft we had a near midair with a general aviation aircraft. When we started the left turn I saw the aircraft flying into [our path] and I immediately told the first officer to turn right and descend. At that point the other aircraft appeared to start a climb. The other aircraft then passed over top of us. It was after we had already start our maneuver that the TCAS RA commanded a climb to which we couldn't comply with at that point. Seconds after passing the other aircraft we received a GPWS alert because we were so low to the water with a high descent rate. No pax injured and no aircraft damage.
