DO NOT PAY THIS OPERATOR. No current price exists; the company is dissolved. For historical recognition only, participants reported paying around $13,000 for a 30-week placement plus roughly $1,700 extra for dive certifications, with flights, insurance and visas all additional on top. Any site currently quoting a Frontier price and accepting a deposit should be treated as fraudulent or as a stale listing.
We take no commission if you enroll and have no relationship with the operator.
DEFUNCT. Frontier sold conservation, teaching and adventure volunteer placements to UK and international gap-year students from 1989, advertising 400+ projects worldwide. Its parent company was formally dissolved in September 2023.
