Why

Join us at Rockingham Beach just below the Churchill Park Lookout, to Reclaim Cockburn Sound and have fun at the same time: Come as a swimmer, participant in beach activities or be part of the flotilla -either in a kayak or paddle board.

Irrespective of whether Australia ever gets its own nuke subs...

RSVP online.

Register to kayak or paddleboard.

AUKUS means:

  • Increased visits of US nuclear powered submarines to
  • HMAS Stirling at Meeandip [Garden Island] - 4 to be stationed there on rotation as of 2027
  • ‘temporary’ storage of US low-level radioactive waste on the island - part of the waste will need to be stored for nearly 300 years. There is still no permanent nuclear waste storage site.

AUKUS will:

  • Bring health, safety and environmental risks if there is a radiation leak
  • Risk marine conservation through possible contamination
  • Make the area a target should hostilities in the region breakout
  • Impact on recreational fishing and marine leisure activities in the Sound
  • Undermine cultural values of First Nations Peoples, the rightful custodians of

Derbal Nara [Cockburn Sound]

Bring hats, sun screen and water!

No AUKUS! No nuke subs! No nuke waste!

RSVP online.

Register to kayak or paddleboard.
