The first time I went to the Caribbean, I was utterly flummoxed to find out many of the locals couldn't swim at all.

I've known people who volunteered to go to various islands to teach basic swimming skills who also haven't been able to quite figure out why either.

I have a friend who worked as a diving instructor on the Gili Islands in Indonesia for a few months. He said that a lot of the local guys who would drive the boats couldn't swim, they also obviously didn't wear life jackets.

It just seems bizarre to me.
