Cronulla, Elouera Surf Life Saving Club



This Elouera Surf Club is located at Elouera Beach, one of the patrolled beaches, in the southern suburb of Cronulla. Elouera is an Aboriginal word meaning 'fine view' or 'beautiful place'. The surf club at this beach was first established in a tent in 1967 but this club house opened in 2007. It provides great views over Bate Bay and the Pacific Ocean.

    I have never been to a surf club (not having many surfers here!) but his looks like a nice place to be a member of.

    I love the idea that it started in a tent. I think it would probably be a nice club to belong to. It certainly is in a nice location. genie

    Hels, the views really are spectacular and the restaurant with these views, on the other side of the building does a roaring trade too.

    The name seems to suit the place! I'd love a view like that.

    That's a very rusty barbecue.

    So it's a relatively new surf club Jim, they certainly chose their spot well!

    It's obvious they've done very well to graduate from humble beginnings in a tent to this beautiful building.

    Lovely scene. I almost feel the need to slather on my sunscreen! ;-)

    This area looks far more "polished" than what I saw some years ago! Good to see such a delightful face lift!
