swim between the flags Australia is well recognised as the land of Surf, Sun and Sand However many would not know that in the 1830’s there was by-law which banned swimming during daylight hours. This may seem unthinkable to us today, however our forefathers felt otherwise. Thankfully public opinion claimed that it was immoral, and this by-law was overruled in early 1902. Australia’s passion for enjoying some of the best that the Australian landscape has to offer, subsequently created the need for Surf Lifesaving. The first Australian volunteer Surf Life Saving Clubs (SLSC) were formed in 1907 on Sydney beaches. They then rapidly popped up throughout Australian beaches. The Maroochy Surf Club is the oldest Surf Club on the Sunshine Coast, being incorporated in 1916. Many of the locals would have grown up with surf lifesaving as an integral part of their lives, however for those of you who are unaware of who Surf Lifesavers are and what they do, they are men and women who generously volunteer their time to provide supervision on our beaches throughout Australia. Currently, Surf Lifesaving in Queensland has over 8,500 active lifesavers who patrol the beach through community based volunteer clubs.

local surf clubs dining out® sat down with Craig Thomas, the Manager of The Maroochy Surf Club to find out a little more about the Coast’s longest running clubs. Many may not know that the Maroochy Surf Club is actually the oldest Surf Club on the Sunshine Coast, being incorporated in 1916. Craig goes on to mention that “with no loss of life on the beach since incorporation, the Maroochy Surf Club has become one of the most iconic surf clubs in Australia, as well as being well known and respected in National and International Life Saving circles”. The Supporters Club also offers an award winning 220 seat functions room, fully equipped TAB, delightful Bistro with outside dining, bar and gaming that is the ideal venue to relax in while watching some of the best views from Noosa to Mooloolaba. We also stopped off to have a delicious meal with Mal Wright, the General Manager of the Coolum Beach Surf Lifesaving Club. Another long-established club, which has been serving the local community and tourists visiting Coolum Beach beach each year since 1919. Coolum Beach is known for its spectacular setting with the cliffs of Point Perry framing the vista from the south of the club to distant views of Noosa Heads to the North. Coolum Beach SLSC has a proud record of no drowning’s between the Red and Yellow flags and is placed in the top three clubs for patrolling on the Sunshine Coast in 2011/12.
