About Us

Whale Beach is situated on the northern peninsular of Sydney’s Northern Beaches.

Our Volunteer Life Savers patrol the beach from September until April each year.

If you are visiting the beach please remember to swim between the Red & Yellow flags! If you require any assistance or information on surf conditions don’t hesitate to approach one of our volunteer Life Savers for advice.

During the season we run Sunday morning events that include a surf swim, board race, ski race and beach events. At the conclusion of the events there is a BBQ on the clubhouse deck. Everyone is welcome!

Whale Beach Surf Club was founded in 1937. The club is housed in a superb, multi-storied clubhouse that, unusually for a surf club, is owned by the members rather than the local council. The clubhouse includes accommodation for members and a gym as well as board and ski storage.

The club has around 100 active and active reserve members and some 120 supporting associate family members. There is keen competition in surf and beach events each Sunday and members enjoy weekend barbecues on the entertainment deck.

The picturesque beach is relatively small, at around 850m long. The north end, known as "The Wedge", is a favourite surfing spot.

Whale Beach SLSC was the innovator of ocean swims and stages The Big Swim, the annual 2km swim from Palm Beach around Little Head to Whale Beach. Last season, around 1,700 swimmers took part in this premier, journey swim. Click here to find out more about The Big Swim.
