My stay at the hostel was wonderful, full of great encounters, the team integrated me straight away and helped me a lot to improve my Portuguese. The work there is not very complicated and allows you to meet and talk with people ! Life there is very pleasant. There is a dormitory for volunteers, toilets, shower, changing room and kitchen everything is clean and modern. And the hostel is as close as possible to the ocean, it is literally in front. It is very pleasant to be able to surf there every day ! In short, I recommend this experience to everyone !

Mi experiencia en el hostel fue súper enriquecedora. Mis tareas como voluntaria consistieron en organizar actividades y trilhas para los huéspedes y conectar con ellos. Se respeto todo lo hablado previamente. Recreio es un lugar increíble para poder conectar con la cultura local de Brasil, surfear y tener una vida cerca del mar. Lo que más voy a extrañar es a todo el equipo y las personas que hacen del hostel un hogar. GRACIASSS!!!!!!

Über das Reiseziel
The experience is based in Recreio dos Bandeirantes, a laid-back coastal neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro known for its consistent waves and preserved nature. Situated right by Macumba Beach, the area offers a perfect escape from the city's chaos, surrounded by lush sandbanks and ecological reserves. It’s a surfer’s sanctuary that blends urban convenience with wild landscapes, offering easy access to hiking trails, natural pools, and the vibrant local beach culture.
Impact & Purpose
The main goal is to combat beach pollution and preserve the fragile sandbank ecosystem. Travelers play a crucial role, as their presence drives the project's ability to maintain a 3,800+ sqm adopted area. The group contributes to tangible results, including the removal of tons of glass and thousands of cigarette butts, ensuring the coastline remains pristine for future generations.
