We’re excited to have model, ambassador and reality TV
star, Elyse Knowles on board for Thongs2SaveLives, a national
fundraising event for Surf Life Saving.
Simply wear your thongs on the first day of summer, Friday 1
December and donate to thongs2savelives.com.au!
We caught up with Elyse to find out more about her, why she
supports Surf Life Saving and what she loves most about summer!
What inspired you to partner with Havaianas and Surf Life Saving
Australia?
In Australia we are so lucky to have the amazing beaches
that we do and enjoying a safe summer by the sand and sea is one of the things
that makes me happiest. I literally wear
Havaianas all summer long - I can’t even tell you how many different pairs I
have and really admire their dedication to supporting our amazing Surf Life
Savers who do such an incredible job keeping us all protected. In turn, working with Havaianas and Surf
Life Saving for Thongs2SaveLives felt really right to me and it was such a
pleasure to be involved.

What does Thongs2SaveLives mean to you?
Thongs2SaveLives is super important to me as I don’t
naturally feel comfortable in the ocean. I was brought up on the river where
there are no rips and waves. Josh has introduced me to the beach culture a lot
more over the last 5 years. I absolutely
love the beach and the ocean, but I am still a little nervous of it. Safety
comes first so swimming in between the flags is a must for me. I truly
appreciate the time and effort the life savers put into keeping me, my loved
ones and all Australians safe year-round.
What is your advice for Australians heading to the beach this summer?
My advice for Aussies heading to the beach this summer is
swim between the flags for safety and maybe even take a second to thank the
life savers patrolling the beach for you to enjoy. Don’t be one of those people
who awkwardly dash to the ocean because their feet are burning on the hot
sand. Slow down, put your Havi’s on and
embrace the beautiful Australian coast for a leisurely stroll by or to the
ocean! And, a personal tip, take a little time away from technology to embrace
the Aussie summer with friends and family.
Where will you be taking your Havaianas this summer?
This summer, Josh and I will be taking both of our Havaianas
up north. The sound of a long, hot, adventurous road-trip along out beautiful
coast makes me SUPER excited. We only have a few more weeks to go so I’m
starting to plan where we can camp along the way, which are the dog-friendly
beaches and where we can swim with the ever-friendly SLS patrol nearby, so we
feel safe all summer long.
What are your favourite beaches in Australia and what do you love about
them?
My favourite beaches in Australia would have to be along the
New South Wales coast. Byron Bay never disappoints with its lovely scenic views
and great laid-back culture. I also love
the beaches along the coast of Western Australia where the desert meets the
sea! Rich red landscapes meeting a clear
blue ocean is a truly beautiful sight.
What are your beach essentials?
Well lets clearly start with the most important item on the
list… my Havaianas. Beyond this we
always have a bunch of towels (Isla needs her own of course), hats, sunscreen,
big drink bottles, a dog bowl for Isla's water, books and magazines to keep
entertained, sunnies, surf-boards and an umbrella if we are really settling in
for the day.
