The more than $1 million build features a new three-storey patrol tower, state-of-the-art first aid room, new toilet and shower facilities, modern function room and full commercial bar.

It was constructed by Broulee based building company P & L Louttit.

Vice-president Natalie Browning said after operating out of the old gear shed while the build was underway, club members are more than ready to move in to the new digs.

"There's a massive feeling of excitement and buzz through the club to be in these new facilities," she said.

"It is such an important community resource and will mean we can provide an even better service."

The club was given the keys last week and ran our first Bronze Medallion and Surf Rescue Certificate (SRC) training over the weekend.

"We had our first patrols and nippers start this weekend with well in excess of 100 kids on the beach which is pretty great for the first day of the season," Ms Browning said.

"This summer is going to be particularly busy considering lockdown is over and we're going to have a lot of people who want to get out and enjoy the beautiful beaches."

The community is invited to celebrate the opening of the new clubhouse for Friday night drinks on November 12.

The bar will be open for business and there will be barbecue meat, seafood and salad available to purchase.
