Kayak Guide Fuerteventura
Working in the Ocean as Kayak Guide?
- “Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life” - Confucius
Did you ever think about living in a paradisiacal place? As a Kayaking Guide you will be able to work in the best spot of Paradise: The Ocean!
Change your life for the best!
With Atlantis Kayaking in Fuerteventura, we help you to make your dreams come true! Kayaking is a lifestyle, more than a work. Every day is different and you meet people all around the world, who are mostly on holidays. This means that they are happy to be here! This makes a big difference for your own happiness. Because happiness is contagious, even more when you live next to the Ocean and when the weather is always good!
The main activity of a Kayaking Guide is to lead & animate kayak trips on a daily basis. This means your role is to let the clients experience a beautiful day in all safety while you’re helping them to improve their kayaking skills and have a lot of fun. At the beach, you’ll brief kayakers about local facilities, emergency procedures and what to expect during the trip, but also some history of the Canary Islands, marine life and hazards.
Before and after the kayak trips, you will also help in preparing and cleaning the shop, the gear, welcoming customers and assisting them with paperwork and eventual questions. Your team will always be able to count on you and you on your team. In between the trips is a good opportunity to share the experience with the customers, what is amazing is that you meet new people every day and one common trait of ocean lovers is that they are open minded. A lot of fun!
You will also oversee the shop and post eventually the last pictures or videos of the dive on social media. Before the day’s over, you’ll help the team with preparing the shop for the next day before celebrating life!
10 Reasons to work in the Atlantis Team:
* THE BEST CLIMATE IN EUROPE - We do kayak trips and recruit people all year around.
* LIFE & LANDSCAPES IN THE WATER
* OPPORTUNITY TO WORK IN SCUBADIVING - We also have a dive center, Atlantis Diving. Our Kayak guides have the opportunity to become a divemaster for free (after a couple of months of work with us).
* ALREADY 3 YEARS IN FUERTEVENTURA - We set up the center 3 years ago (9 years in Tenerife). After exploration and experience, we know the best spots on the islands, we have experienced Instructors & Kayak Guides, we are busy, we have regular customers and we are still growing every year.
* KAYAK TRAINING - You’ll be accompanied & trained step by step, from A to Z, as well for theory, skills & attitude. You’ll receive more and more autonomy regarding your learning progress, professionalism & judgement with a step-by-step approach.
* LEARN WITH REAL CLIENTS - As Kayaking Guide you will immediately be member of the Atlantis team, this means you will also have responsibilities as ambassador of our company.
* BECOME A MULTISKILLED KAYAKING GUIDE - Extra non-dive related trainings are also part of the Kayaking Guide Training: animation, sales, social media, photo and video tricks, equipment, maintenance, scuba diving, first aid and much more!
* OUR LOCATION - Best region in Fuerteventura.
* LOW TAX RATE - We have a very low tax rate in the Canary Islands. VAT is not applied but there is a Sales Tax (IGIC) which has a general rate of 5%, this is the opportunity for you to buy any equipment on the island.
* WE GO FOR FUN! - Last but not least. We go for fun! Life is short and we are aware of this. Therefore, we do our best to make from each day the most beautiful day for us, our team and for our customers. A smile is contagious, such as enthusiasm and happiness. As Kayaking Guides, we are leaders, we must show the example.
EXTRA: WE HELP YOU TO SETTLE - As we did the same, we know that when you arrive in another country, you don't know the tips & tricks to enjoy more and to save money: Therefore, before your arrival and during your stay we will help you to find a good price for your flight, to find accommodation in your budget and we will give you the good addresses to buy food, eventually rent a car, or buy other stuff you need.
Who are we looking for?
- Where there is a will, there is a way! Working in kayaking is also a challenge and a good one! Therefore, we need members in our team who are embracing challenge. This means we are looking for someone who is ready to learn and to overcome the obstacles along the way to the glory!
In general, you don’t need previous experience in kayaking, but you need:
* To understand and speak English
* To agree to relocate to Fuerteventura
* To be customer oriented
