Description

This camp will be carried out in cooperation with Amigos del Mar Foundation, which is a non-profit organization that seeks to contribute to the social development, sport and educational growth of young people from Tierra Bomba Island. This is achieved by motivating young people to return to school, and training them in discipline and values, through water sports, cultural and environmental activities.

To motivate them and train them in discipline, they involve them in nautical life, teaching them to surf, windsurf, stand up paddle board and kitesurf. Likewise, they provide complementary education for girls and boys on the island and offer young people productive opportunities to learn, take part and earn extra money.

All knowledge and skills are welcome for the development of classes and/or workshops.

Logement & nourriture

  • The participants will stay at the Foundation's facilities. Each volunteer will have a private room with private bathroom. The kitchen will be shared with the other volunteers.
  • Participants will be provided with food supplies and they will cook and prepare their own meals together.
  • Once a week, a member of the local community will be with the volunteers teaching them to cook typical food from the Colombian coast.

Emplacement & temps libre
