(AU, 65015261451) Browse eventsThe Coogee Surf Life Saving Club was founded in 1907 by a group of concerned locals who thought that the surf bathers needed protection from the dangers and the vagaries of the surf. From humble beginnings, where we operated out of a wooden shack, our first club house was built in 1910. All the members performed patrols on weekends until a roster system was eventually devised. Coogee has always been at the forefront of surf life saving. The first mass rescue, night surf carnival, shark attack and the development of the resuscitation technique all happened at Coogee. This has created a great sense of camaraderie and loyalty to the club. The club is operated by volunteers and all patrolling members who watch over the general public on the beach are volunteers.
