Surf Lifesaving New Zealand is an organization dedicated to ensuring the safety of beachgoers across New Zealand's coastlines. It provides training and support for lifeguards, who are essential in preventing drowning and responding to emergencies at the beach. The organization also promotes water safety education to help the public understand the risks associated with ocean activities. Founded in 1910, Surf Lifesaving New Zealand operates numerous clubs along the coast, where volunteers and paid lifeguards work together. They conduct regular patrols, rescue operations, and community outreach programs, fostering a culture of safety and awareness among beach users.
