Legally
Waipu Cove Surf Life Saving Club (WCSLSC) is a constituted member of the Surf Life Saving Northern Region Incorporated. We are situated half an hour South of Whangarei, in the Whangarei District.
During our 2014-15 Season, 50+ members passed their Surf Lifeguard Award. This was thanks to a select group of Lifeguard Instructors who gave up their time to deliver regular training sessions covering; First aid, theory bookwork, 400m pool swims, run-swim-run in the surf and tube rescues…
