The oldest lifesaving club in South Africa
On Tuesday, 28 June 1927, approximately 40 people gathered in the Mayor's Parlour at Durban City Hall. At this meeting, Durban Surf Lifesaving Club was officially formed.
Durban Surf became the first organised surf lifesaving club in Durban and is recognised as the oldest lifesaving club in South Africa.
