The life jacket comprises a harness (1) arranged to be fitted over the torso of an individual and comprising a dorsal structure, a ventral structure (3) and a belt (6), ventral buoyancy tubes (8, 9) connected to the harness (1), and manual inflation means for inflating the ventral buoyancy tubes (8, 9). The ventral buoyancy tubes (8, 9) are arranged on the ventral structure (3) of the harness (1), in the uninflated state, folded against the ventral structure (3) of the harness (1) and, in the inflated state, deployed along the ventral structure (3). The ventral tubes (8, 9) are connected to inflatable connectors (21) extending within the belt (6). Due to the tubes, in case of difficulty, the head of the swimmer is out of the water and turned upwards. Otherwise, the swimmer is not made uncomfortable.
