St Clair SLSC

Club Overview

Established in 1911, St Clair Surf Life Saving Club were one of the very first surf life saving clubs to patrol in New Zealand. The club has been providing a continuous volunteer service focused on saving lives and preventing injury for St Clair beach users and the wider Dunedin Community over the last 100 years. Currently we have well in excess of 200 members with particular strengths in all aspects of surf sports and a strong junior surf group.
