STAY AROUND AFTER YOUR SWIM

When you have finished swimming - why don't you stick around for a night on the beach to soak up the atmosphere. We thank Bay Events who support us on the night with marquees and blow-up chairs on the sand to lay around and relax.

We have DJ Reagan Mo pumping out Friday night tunes with a BBQ, Bar and Millies Kiosk open for a fun, relaxing night out.

​Bring your swim club along and set up a marquee for a gorgeous night on Mills beach.
