Perth brothers Jake and Callum Robinson remembered in emotional memorial paddle out at Sorrento beach

There were emotional scenes at Sorrento beach on Saturday as dozens of people paddled their way past the break of the waves to remember Callum and Jake Robinson.

Ocean paddlers, surfers and surf lifesavers gathered for the memorial paddle off the northern suburbs beach, with the brothers foremost in their minds.

Portraits of the brothers stood side by side on the sand as friends and family walked onto the beach, paddles and kayaks in tow, before heading onto the water.

With sun shining down on them, the group formed a circle before the boys’ father Martin Robinson paddled to the middle and said a few words to commemorate his beloved sons.

Two wreaths were released onto the water, floating gently with the waves as grieving attendees raised their paddles in the air during a minute of silence.

Friends and family embraced, arms around each other, as they paddled back to shore following the emotional memorial.

It came a week after Jake and Callum were farewelled in a heart-wrenching private memorial last Saturday at Sacred Heart College, across the road from Saturday’s paddle out.

Hundreds gathered at the college, where the brothers attended high school, to remember the fun-loving pair whose lives were tragically cut short in a bungled robbery.
