To Surf or Not to Surf
Many volunteers ask if they have to be a surfer... the answer is no! Surfing is a passion of some of our staff & volunteers, however if you don't surf there are plenty of other outdoor, water-related activities for you to participate in!
Want to surf? Check out more info at: https://thebocasbreeze.com/surf/bocas-del-toro-surf/
We recommend buying a used board or renting a board once you get to Bocas instead of paying expensive airline board bag fees!
