Water Safety Website
 
This website is brought to you by the Victorian Government's 'Play it Safe by the Water ' campaign, which is actively working towards increasing community awareness of water safety.  
 
It contains water safety information to assist you be safe at the beach, at the river, by the pool and while boating and fishing.  It allows you to play your part in ensuring that no matter where or when you are in and around the water there is someone looking out for you.
 

 
The ‘Play it Safe by the Water’ campaign, a Victorian Government initiative, aims to increase community awareness of water safety and change Victorian’s behaviour in and around water, by encouraging people to enjoy our beaches, rivers, lakes, bays and pools in the safest possible manner.
