The 2026 Sunshine Coast Solstice Swim at Alexandra Headland Beach is the "fun and must do" community swim on the Sunshine Coast.
Every year ocean swimming enthusiasts from near and far gather to swim their preferred swim distance under the watchful eyes of the Alex Surf lifesavers in IRB's and boards.
It is the ONLY swim on the coast where every dollar raised is put back into the local community. Check out THIS LINK for our SeaFM interview.
It's the swimming communities way of having fun and showing support for the many volunteer organisations on the coast who do such amazing work. Last year you raised over $11,000 for EACH of these causes...Domestic Violence victim accommodation, mental health, homelessness, and the supply of meals to families in need.
