Beach
Patrol
Patrols are conducted on Bulcock Beach,
Caloundra. Bulcock Beach is located just inside the Caloundra Bar
and is a favoured spot for families and the elderly; additionally
groups often attend the beach (School groups and groups of people
with special needs).
The bathing reserve is about 150m in
length.

However, the area of responsibility
of the club is much greater than the patrol area. The club is responsible
for swimmers in and around beaches from the groyne at the southern
end of Kings Beach to the most southern point of Golden Beach, Caloundra.
This is the largest stretch of
responsibility in the southern Sunshine coast area.
