In 1937, 22-year-old Joe Doniger heroically pulled his friend Jack Brinkley from the jaws of a shark at Kirra Beach. He was awarded a gold medal from the Royal Humane Society, a silver medal from the Surf Lifesaving Association and a citation from King George VI for his bravery. In 1949, after a drowning in North Kirra, Joe also helped start the North Kirra Surf Club. A park is named in his honour.
