About North Beach Surf Lifesaving Club

North Beach Surf Life Saving Club is a club at 80 Marine Parade in North New Brighton, Christchurch. Its volunteer lifeguard patrols work on the club's stretch of beach, and the website asks people to choose a lifeguarded beach and swim between the flags. The club runs a junior surf programme on summer Sunday mornings, a rookie lifeguard programme for 13 and 14 year olds, and IRB racing. It has two beach wheelchairs available to the public from the clubhouse, and a beach access mat that is rolled out during summer patrols. The club is marking 110 years of North Beach, with a celebration dinner and an IRB interclub on 28 November, the website says.

Reviewers describe the club as having a sporting, family and community feel, and mention the coffee. One reviewer called the club about a man acting strangely on the beach, and says the team went to speak to him and then gave an update. The reviewer was grateful for the support. The club's regular phone has been having trouble, and the website gives another number for calls during patrol hours. The website also asks people to register with the club for the season.
