WAVES for Development is an affiliation of not-for-profit organizations dedicated to making the world a better place through surfing. Working in coastal communities, WAVES helps communities connect surfing and sustainable development through Educational Surf Programs for local youth and Adventure Voluntourism for visitors.
WAVES is currently offering volunteeropportunities for Adventure Voluntourists beginning the first and third weekend of each month. Volunteers arrive in Lobitos for a weekend orientation before beginning their service as instructors and assistants in WAVES Educational Surf programs with local youth.
Based on your skills and experience you will contribute to the Educational Surf program as an instructor or assistant in one of the following program areas: English and Arts, Earth Connection, Swimming and Surfing. You will stay in the home of a local family and share your meals with other volunteers staying there. The minimum commitment is 2 weeks. Volunteers can extend their service by increments of 1 week and can be extended as long as they wish to remain and assist.
