Whitehaven Beach, Whitsundays

About the Club

The North Mackay Sinkers are a welcoming Masters swimming club for adults aged 18 and over. Whether you’re dipping back into the pool, building fitness, or chasing competitive goals, you’ll find a friendly, supportive community that loves both pool and open‑water swimming. We cater to all levels — from casual swimmers to seasoned competitors — with regular training sessions across local pools and a growing open‑water community. Our club calendar features two major annual events: - Fun in Feb – our social, participation‑focused meet held on the last Saturday in February - The Whitehaven Beach Open Water Swim – our flagship October event in the Whitsundays Beyond the water, we’re proudly community‑minded. Since 2015, the Sinkers have raised over $100,000 for charities and local services through swimming‑based fundraising and volunteer initiatives. If you’re looking for fitness, fun, friendship, or a new challenge, the Sinkers are ready to welcome you.
