Helicopter Rescue:

The use of helicopters to rescue swimmers dates back to 1970, when a service was established in Auckland. Now the Westpac Rescue Helicopter in Auckland, like those elsewhere, responds to a wide range of medical emergencies and accidents, including surf rescue.

Welcome to the Trust Waikato Waihi Beach Lifeguard Service

 

The Trust Waikato Waihi Beach Lifeguard Service is situated at the northern end of Waihi Beach, but patrol the full length of the beach (10km) as well as some of the smaller bays up the coast.

 

The Waihi Beach lifeguards work to keep the beach safe for the many swimmers, sunbathers, picnickers and holiday makers from all around New Zealand, who make their way to our beach for the busy summer months.

Every year we perform between 10-30 rescues and around 2000 preventative actions to keep swimming at Waihi Beach as safe as possible.

 

Our club membership is always growing, with a current 193? members and an even bigger Junior Surf (‘Nippers’) membership. We are always looking for new members.

 

If you would like to find out more about joining or sponsoring the Waihi Beach Lifeguard Service please contact us or come and visit during patrol hours.
