Police Paddle to start from Ettalong

The Brisbane Water Police Paddle will take place on September 19, from Ettalong to Gosford Sailing Club.

The annual event is back for its seventh year.

"We have all types of craft from surf boats, surf skis, kayaks, stand up paddle boards and surf boards involved," said Brisbane Water Police district commander Superintendent Tony Joyce.

The Paddle gets underway from 9:30am from the boat ramp on The Esplanade near the intersection of Kourong Pde and will see paddlers make a 12km one way trip to the sailing club.

A water police vessel and surf lifesaving rescue craft will provide an escort and assistance to participants.

The Paddle is free to enter.

Participants are encouraged to make a donation to NSW Police Legacy through the Brisbane Water Paddle 2019 Go Fund Me campaign.

There will be a barbecue upon completion.
