Welcome to Eco Surf Volunteers!
Eco Surf Volunteers combines hands-on humanitarian and environmental volunteer work with South America's finest untouched beaches and year-round surfing (for any level).
Additionally, Eco Surf Volunteers promotes awareness of local environmental and social issues. In 2009, Eco Surf Volunteers committed to hosting beach clean-ups along approximately 10 miles of the Southern California coast. Current projects aim to expand this effort to regions outside California.
