Normanville SLSC & Café/Kiosk Redevelopment
Normanville foreshore transformation: Celebrating the completion of the Surf Life Saving Club & Aqua Blue Café/Kiosk
The District Council of Yankalilla is delighted to announce the successful completion of the Normanville Surf Life Saving Club & Aqua Blue Café/Kiosk, marking a significant milestone for the community. The fantastic new facilities symbolise a commitment to enhancing beach safety and recreational amenities at the iconic Normanville Foreshore.
The Normanville SLSC plays a pivotal role in ensuring the safety of beachgoers, with dedicated lifeguards and state-of-the-art equipment. In addition, the Aqua Blue Café/Kiosk not only adds a charming addition to the coastal landscape but also provides a welcoming space for locals and visitors to relax and enjoy the beach atmosphere.
The Council is thrilled to present this fantastic addition to our community and could not have done it without the support of our project partners - Partek Construction & Interiors, Architects Inc., Bestec, Wallbridge Gilbert Aztec (WGA), Rider Levett Bucknall (RLB), and Buildsurv who worked tirelessly under the guidance of our Project Manager John Kantilaftis. Thank you to our funding partners - SafeCom (State Gov), Surf Life Saving SA and Normanville SLSC. The combined contributions have resulted not only in a safer community but also in the overall well-being and enjoyment of this picturesque coastal area.
