About
Cairns Surf Life Saving Club is a historic sports club located in Cairns, Queensland. Founded in 1924, it is one of the oldest Surf Life Saving clubs in the state and was initially established as a volunteer organisation to patrol the Northern Beaches of Cairns. The club began its patrols on the Cairns Esplanade before relocating to Yorkey’s Knob. In 1953, the club settled at its current location at the Northern end of Palm Cove.
The primary focus of Cairns Surf Life Saving Club is to ensure the safety of beachgoers. The club maintains voluntary patrols of the beach on weekends and public holidays from April to November. These dedicated and well-trained members keep a watchful eye on the beach, ready to respond to any emergencies and provide assistance when needed.
In addition to its commitment to beach safety, Cairns Surf Life Saving Club offers a range of activities for its members. The club caters to junior members aged between 5 and 13, affectionately known as “Nippers. ” This programme provides young members with essential beach and water safety skills while fostering a love for the ocean. The club also provides opportunities for senior members to participate in various activities, including the popular “Masters” category for those aged over 30.
