Friends of Rainbow Bay Society is a small not for profit group dedicated to maintaining and improving the Rainbow Bay, Snapper Rocks and Froggy’s Beach environment.
Friends of Rainbow Bay Society was formed in 1999 in response to the then proposed sand pumping at the Tweed River, to enable the community to actively participate in the planning for Rainbow Bay foreshore, park and environs. It's role is significant in developing community cohesion and communicating accurately with the many people who share and enjoy this area; especially given the very small number of permanent residents. Since 2009 their small group has been working in partnership with Griffith University Centre for Coastal Management - Beach Care and The Gold Coast City Council to remove litter, weed and replant the dunes in Rainbow Bay. They would like to increase community awareness of the importance of the dunes and to increase community involvement in caring for our environment.
