About Us

Marine Rescue Batemans Bay is a proud volunteer-based coastal rescue service which forms part of the overall Marine Rescue NSW organisation.  We are dedicated to safeguarding lives on the water 24/7, 365 days a year, and in all weather conditions.  Operating across the Clyde River and the Batemans Bay region and surrounding areas. We provide rapid-response rescue services and a vital radio safety net and monitoring for the boating community.

Through our log-on system, skippers can register their trip details with our radio operators before heading out.  If a vessel fails to return at the expected time or does not log off on time, our team initiates an immediate search, ensuring that help is on the way when it’s needed most.  This proactive safety measure offers peace of mind to boaters and their families, knowing that someone is always looking out for them.  We are also there to help all water users, including kayaks, tinnies, and even rescuing beach goers on floating airbeds.

Our vessel crews and radio operators are all highly trained professional unpaid volunteers who meet the rigorous standards set by Marine Rescue NSW and the expectations of our community.  They bring not only skill and professionalism to every operation, but also a deep commitment to community service and maritime safety.

Whether you’re an experienced mariner, new to boating or radio operations or want to volunteer to help out or give back to our community, Marine Rescue Batemans Bay is here to support you on the water.  

We welcome new members who share our passion for saving lives and serving the community.
