Tide Tables
Welcome to the web site of
Tintagel Surf Life Saving Club.
We are
a small club in North Cornwall with our members coming from
the area of Tintagel, Delabole, Camelford, Boscastle and St Teath.
The club is a registered charity and run by a band of dedicated volunteers,
led by our club chairman, Les Freke, who has been involved in surf
life saving since the early seventies, being a Beach lifeguard, Instructor,
and Examiner within the Cornish region.
This
is a new site, so the content will be constantly updated,
particularly the photos which appear on most of the pages, and
even the basic design layout will probably change over the
coming months - so visit us regularly to see how we progress.
Where
are we?
The club
is located a couple of miles to the south of Tintagel at Trebarwith
Strand which is the local surfing beach.
This
photo is a view of the club from the gulley which leads on to the
beach.
As you
look through the website, you can see that Tintagel has a small
stony beach beneath the Castle Island, unsuitable for surfing.
Trebarwith Strand is well known to surfers and holiday makers, and has
been patrolled by our club and the Lifeguards for many years.
Club Meetings
The club is now meeting on Friday evenings for Swim training at Camelford
Leisure Centre. The sessions start at 7:30pm and go on to 8:30pm.
We need as many people to turn up to these sessions as possible as
it is not cheap to hire the pool!
If
any parents would like to help with the Nipper meetings on Friday
evenings, or the Junior meetings on Sunday mornings, please let
us know - it would be great have more adults involved with the
club - and we have a lot of fun, you will enjoy it. You could even
learn some cool things!
