ISLA is excited to conduct this Project that has been in development for over a year. The purpose of the lifeguard exchange will be to volunteer alongside the SEAL Rescuers during the peak holiday season while sharing vital lifesaving techniques, information, and experiences.
Chile is a highly developed country, and the SEAL Organization is one of the most advanced lifeguarding agencies in the world. Claudio Pradenas, ISLA Ambassador and founder of SEAL; has been a professional ocean lifeguard in four countries; Mexico, Brazil, the United States, and Chile.
Project Dates: December 29th – January 1st, 2013.
Project Costs: Airfare to Santiago Chile, and a $50 donation for transportation and covering the equipment that will be donated. All housing will be covered while working.
*There is still space for two more adventurous lifeguards to be a part of this amazing voluntourism opportunity; Spanish is preferred is but not required. Email william.koon@islasurf.org ASAP if you are interested!
