DOLPHINS WINTER SWIMMING CLUB
Who We Are
The Dolphins formed in 1985 sponsored by the Tweed Heads Dolphins Hotel using the enclosed Jack Evans Boat harbour for swims. In 1997 the club relocated to the surf club at Greenmount Beach, Coolangatta which has continued as the meeting place for activities. Weekly swims still continue in the boat harbour or if conditions are favourable, in the surf.
Membership is open to all levels of swim ability with ladies and families welcome.
