We provide you with all the training needed to be a volunteer Surf Life Saver so that you can regurlary conduct Beach Patrols and help to protect the community. Check out our up-coming courses. We offer a range of surf sports opportunities and have a gym available for active members wishing to stay fit.
In addition, we also have Associate members who do not patrol but are greatly valued by their general support and involvement in many other facets of the Club. This category is available for our Nipper parents as well as those that just want to contribute to this valuable community service.
Coolangatta Surf Life Saving Club can present young people with many opportunities for self development and growth. Not only can they make new friends, but develop important skills and values that can help them throughout their lives.
