Spencer Park Surf Lifesaving Club welcomes you to our community. Located right on Spencer Park beach in Christchurch, just a short drive from the city centre, the club is perfectly positioned next to Spencer Beach Holiday Park and the picnic areas.
Ross, the organiser, wants to remind you that the club's main goal is to provide a volunteer lifeguard patrol on Spencer Park beach. With a team of dedicated lifeguards, the club ensures everyone's safety during the summer, with patrols scheduled for about six weekends throughout the season.
Ross also highlights that the club isn't just about patrols. They offer a top-notch surf lifesaving and sport training programme. From learning water recovery and beach safety to using rescue equipment and first aid, the club's experienced instructors help members progress through various lifeguard qualifications.
For those interested in surf lifesaving as a sport, Ross points out that the club has a range of activities for everyone, whether you're a beginner or looking to take your skills to the next level. The new clubhouse and lifeguard facilities, now available for hire—including weddings—are something Ross takes pride in. Plus, the live webcam offers real-time beach conditions, making it easier to plan your visit.
The junior surf programme is another key aspect Ross is passionate about. Aimed at kids aged 7 to 13, it focuses on teaching beach and water safety while introducing various surf sport events in a fun and supportive environment.
