Help us keep Coolum Beach Safe

Since its launch in the late 1980’s the IRB (inshore rescue boat or rubber duck) has become a vital rescue tool. With its ability to quickly get through any size surf and to pick up multiple patients the IRB has become the go to piece of lifesaving equipment. At a cost of close to $20,000 for a boat and motor it is not cheap which is why the club is announcing that the target for this years 200 Club is a new IRB. ..

Summer of Surf Ocean 6 - Coming to Coolum Beach 9/10th Nov

Summer of Surf Ocean 6 is coming to Coolum Beach 9/10th Nov and we will be looking for a workforce to help out. We will be releasing a schedule of times in coming days but will require IRB drivers and crew, first aid officers, and a general workforce.

We request 4 hours minimum per shift. This will go towards competitor funding for accommodation subsidy under the Competitor and Team Support Funding Policy.

This is a great event that brings many competitors from all over Australia to our beach and we hope you can be a part of it.

Keeping it in the family

Life Member and Patrol Captain was very proud to have three generations on patrol in wet and windy conditions on Sunday morning. Dave, daughter Kate and grandkids Brendon and Avya- Marie were all on duty on Patrol Team 13 keeping the beach safe. Between them they boast over 75 years of volunteer service.
