Though Southport Surf Life Saving Club was founded in 1924, its story extends further into the past. As early as 1913. volunteer lifesavers served at Main Beach. A small group of locals formed the first patrolling squad. Their initiative was largely in response to a 1912 drowning disaster at Main Beach, which took the lives of three young men. This patrolling group served for several years before disbanding. In 1920, another well-intentioned but short-lived life saving club was formed. By 1924 a substantial bridge connecting Southport to Main Beach was completed - it provided easy beach access to locals and visitors. The guarantee of increased bathers and the lack of lifesavers was an ominous prospect. So, on the night of the 15th December 1924, a group of Southport gentlemen decided to form the Southport Surf Life Saving Club.

CSi Club Southport has played an important part in the Southport community for over 50 years. It all began with a group of working-class locals who would meet each Sunday to enjoy a few cold beers and a yarn at the location where our Club now stands. During one of these catch ups, the decision was made to form their own Trade Union Club, and so the hard work of raising funds and community support began. It was in 1967 that their dream became a reality and on the site of the old Southport Railway Station they opened the doors to the Southport Workers Club. After extensive renovations, the decision was made to rebrand as CSi Club Southport inc. We now host alfresco dining in The Laneway restaurant, 199 gaming machines, five full service bars, live & free entertainment every Friday & Saturday night, state of the art TAB & KENO facilities, multiple function & event spaces, a giant kidz zone with jungle gym, and over 300 car parks around the club, including a multi-level car park located at the back of the club off Railway Street.
