The Tweed Heads & Coolangatta SLSC - patrolling Greenmount Beach since 1911. (A) young man endeavoured to effect a rescue, but was carried out.
The development of surf life saving at Coolangatta began with the State’s first recorded rescue in 1909 by a group of local, aspiring surf life savers.

We would like to thank Laura Ge**er MP for her generous donation of a new marquee for our club.
It will be used during patrols to provide much needed shade for our volunteer lifesavers as they work to keep beachgoers safe.
Support like this makes a real difference to our volunteers.
We are all excited, TH&C Nippers are back on the beach this Sunday January 18.
Our Nippers learn great life skills along with how to stay safe in the surf. Fun learning and meeting new friends. That is what Sundays are at Greenmount Beach every Sunday over summer.

Drownings happen away from patrolled areas and outside the red and yellow flags.
Just by choosing a patrolled beach and swimming between the flags, you dramatically lower your risk.
One small decision, a huge difference to your safety.
