Sorrento Beach is one of the most popular coastal destinations in the northern suburbs, used by thousands of residents and visitors each year.

At the centre of this activity is a volunteer surf lifesaving service that provides patrols, emergency response, and first aid to the community.

The Sorrento Surf Life Saving Club redevelopment is designed to ensure these services can continue to be delivered safely and effectively, both now and into the future.

A Community-Focused Project

This redevelopment is not simply a club building. It is a broader foreshore precinct project that will deliver:

• Public toilets and change rooms

• Accessible facilities for all users

• A stand-alone amenities building for beach visitors

• Improved parking and landscaped recreation areas

• A publicly accessible café

• A modern base for volunteer lifesaving operations

These facilities are designed primarily for the benefit of the wider community.

Supporting Public Safety

Each season, volunteer lifesavers contribute thousands of hours of patrol time, responding to incidents and helping keep beach users safe.

The existing facility has supported this work for many years, but it no longer aligns with the operational needs of modern lifesaving services.

The redevelopment will provide a fit-for-purpose base to support effective emergency response and public safety into the future.

Planning for Growth

Sorrento Beach continues to see strong community use, and demand for surf lifesaving participation and youth programs is increasing.

In recent seasons, local clubs have reached capacity in some programs, reflecting growing demand across the community.

The redevelopment ensures facilities can support this growth, allowing programs, volunteer training, and safety services to continue to meet future needs.

A Shared Investment

The project has been developed over several years, with significant funding secured from multiple sources, including State Government, Lotterywest, and community contributions.

This reflects a shared commitment to delivering infrastructure that supports public safety and community access.

Looking Ahead

The Sorrento redevelopment is about maintaining a safe, accessible, and well-supported coastline for everyone who uses it.

It ensures that the services the community already relies on can continue to be delivered effectively for years to come.
