  • Description

    We are situated on the lake in Northern Malawi. Situated in our own private bay, we have 10 chalets and have a reputation for excellent food and service. There is abundant bird life and we offer various water sports and tours. We are involved in several different projects in the surrounding village. We would like volunteers to help with these projects.

    This project is part of Ecoteer - the solution to travel and volunteering on a shoestring.

    Ecoteer is a unique volunteer opportunities agency - offering a directory of cheap volunteer work opportunities, volunteer jobs abroad and working holidays. Our volunteer opportunities are cheap because we have eliminated the middleman slashing the price to volunteer abroad for gap years, career breaks and working holidays. Ecoteer is leading the way in a new type of volunteer work opportunities abroad and is changing the volunteer and working holiday industry back to what it used to be benefiting both the volunteer and the volunteer project.

    We have other opportunities in eco-tourism, conservation, humanitarian aid and teaching in other 50 countries.

    To volunteer with Ecoteer you need to become an Ecoteer volunteer member which costs only GBP20 per year.

    Please inquire for more of our cheap volunteering opportunities.
