THE Disabled Surfers Association Mornington Peninsula branch heads back into the water at Point Leo on Saturday.
The event, which is expected to see hundreds of volunteers helping surfers enjoy their time in the waves, is the first for this year.
The January event was cancelled due to COVID-19 restrictions and Saturday’s day at the beach will include taking precautions with sanitisers available and equipment being frequently cleaned.
The number of people attending the event will fall safely within state government limits and there will be restrictions on crowding around the Point Leo Lifesaving Club.
