Descrição
We are an outdoor adventure company offering watersports and activities from the beautiful Desaru Coast beach in East Johor. We work on the beach all year round offering the public and holidaymakers great experiences from surfing, sailing, kayaking to jetskis and ATVs. We are looking for fun energetic individuals to spend some time with us. You will learn lots of skills on watersports, marine safety and get a chance to really immerse in truly Malaysian local culture and hospitality. It's great fun.
We also run loads of team building events on the beach. Corporate companies engage us to have some 'serious fun' with their staff, playing a bunch of carefully created challenges that gently reinforce the usual team building buzz words: leadership, communication, listening, encouragement, etc, etc. If you're with us during these bookings you'll definitely be involved in helping run these engagements. The staff have as much fun doing these as the guests do.

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
Desaru is an up and coming destination with a huge amount of investment however it remains at its heart a sleepy, very friendly slice of Malaysian coastal rural life. People here are as relaxed as they come - a great contrast from Kuala Lumpur and the polar opposite of the Khao San Road. With that said we are still just a quick drive to Johor Bahru or a short ferry hop to Singapore.
Ajuda
We run a watersports operation and activity centre so the help is centred around looking after guests when they arrive, filling in consent forms, providing safety briefings, getting equipment ready, helping guests on the water, maintaining equipment, using the equipment yourself and generally having some fun in the sun.
If you DO have a background in water sports, boats, jetskis etc then you'll be an instant superstar but don't worry if you don't. The jobs we have range from the mechanical to the gentle hospitality touch. Tell us what you can do and more importantly tell us what you want to learn. We'll find a role for you for the time you are here that will work. Our guys are just as keen to learn from you as you are from us - especially to improve their language skills.

Inglês: Fluente

Acomodação
We'll put you up in decent accommodation locally and pay for meals. There are a couple of options and it depends what is available at the time. We are not looking for a large number of workawayers to help out - just one or two so we have plenty of space.
Algo mais...
We have struggled to build confidence with our local staff when interacting with foreign guests and the Workaway bi-lateral cultural exchange has made a big difference to our staff confidence.
Some key things Workawayers help us with:
A. bringing a more professional approach to customer interactions – our staff learn huge amounts from this
B. pushing our staff to speak English much more throughout the day
C. Our staff get to hang out with ‘Westerners’ as friends which makes their customer interactions (with Western tourists) less intimidating for themselves
D. Our staff get to learn about each Workaway’s culture and our staff enjoy teaching them theirs – food, language etc. So far we have had many different people from all ages, walks of life and different countries. It’s been really interesting and helpful for our staff

They both approached the simplest of tasks with joy and enthusiasm, always offering assistance and advice on how we can improve our service and interactions with each other and our customers.

We had such a great time volunteering at the beach kiosk and helping out with the watersports/sales, we did it twice for a total of three months.
The entire staff is so friendly and welcoming. We loved getting to know them all, and it was great to share stories with them. We owe huge thanks, especially to Shan and Ben, for making us a part of the… read more

We stayed for 4 weeks and it was an amazing experience. We had a great time with the staff and the other volunteers, all of them were so friendly and welcoming. We always going to remember the days we spend talking about life and traveling at work or even when we went out together. We were there for Christmas and New Year's Eve and they were so… read more

Great workaway experience with Darren and the team, we were able to use the equipment as much as we wanted which made beach days more fun. Accommodation was great, we had our own room, and shared the bathroom with one other couple. Getting around was a little hard, as theres no buses and limited taxis, we stayed for three weeks and loved it. Staff… read more

Both are fitness freaks and love to have a go at activities and were great when demonstrating different activities to guests.
We had no problems letting them deal directly with our customers and they were always… read more

We were the second set of WA with the host, and we had a great time! We stayed for 5 weeks and helped with social media, digital marketing and water sports. Some days were pretty long, and you need to be willing to get stuck in and help in all aspects, as well as cleaning jetski’s with the team on some evenings. The apartment is really nice, with… read more

They were great dealing with customers and we never had any concerns about 'putting them out there' with our clients.

This is over all a nice workaway! The Malay staff are sweet and helpful (some a bit lazy), job is nice, working straight at a stunning beach selling snacks/beach activities or talking and helping customers about beach activities, maintaining the sales area, filling up stock, maintaining and carrying the equipment.

Brian & Lindsay were fantastic. We were still finding our feet with how best to host WorkAway-ers, and they were patient and supportive the whole way through. We loved having them as part of the team, and the Malaysian staff really enjoyed rubbing shoulders with them each day and learning from their life experiences. They were both up for a… read more
