St Helens Marine Rescue

St Helens Marine Rescue Association, a dedicated volunteer unit, operates from the St Helens Foreshore, providing essential rescue services along Tasmania's north and east coasts, including Bass Strait. With over 20 years of experience, the association conducts approximately 50 missions annually, ranging from barway escorts to offshore rescues. Staffed by thirty trained volunteers, they offer daily marine radio services, delivering weather updates and safety information to the community. The association is entirely self-funded, relying on grants, community support, and donations to maintain its operations.
