TwinFin Cafe/ 9nine lives hostel

Lagos Portugal is a great place to be! Help 5 hours a day, 5 days a week then go explore the stunning beaches! Learn to surf and paddle board with our friends, find a quiet place to do yoga and eat at all the amazing restaurants! We have a close knit atmosphere here, where staff and guests are all family.

I have owned both businesses for about 4 years now. The volunteers I look for are outgoing, like meeting new people, making new friends, and learning about different cultures. Everyone is like a big family here; Including the guests! Get ready to make some life long friends!

I loved working at the Twin Fin Café. It was my first Worldpackers and also my first solo travel experience, and it couldn’t have been better. I stayed at the so-called “Villa,” which was great accommodation with enough space and a family atmosphere. Lagos and the café are great places to meet many people, and the nature and beaches are wonderful too. The work can be busy in the summer season, but everyone is patient and explains everything clearly. Brad, who runs everything, is such a kind person and made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a very cool experience!

I stayed for 4 weeks and had a really good
time! I enjoyed working in the café because the working environment is welcoming.
However, previous experience in the catering industry is recommended. The accommodation is a 15-minute walk away in a somewhat improvised but very spacious flat. In my free time and on my day off, I had plenty of time to explore Lagos and the surrounding towns, relax on the beaches, go hiking and enjoy the nightlife. I will definitely be back!

I absolutely loved my time at 9ninelives! The team was amazing—especially Heather, who makes you feel at home from day one. The hostel is super social, and it’s easy to make friends within minutes. The vibe is relaxed and fun, with lots of shared meals, rooftop hangs, and spontaneous adventures. The work is chill—some light housekeeping and reception duties, nothing too hard. It’s the perfect place to connect, explore, and feel part of a little family. Highly recommend!

If you’re looking to make some amazing friends from all different countries, work on your hospitality skills and experience the algarve this is the option for you. Twin Fin can get very busy in the summer so experience is recommended but the FOH team are patient and understanding. The Villa where volunteers sleep has everything you need and is close enough to all Lagos’s action with the added benefit of not being as noisy as old town and right next to a supermarket. Lagos also has great public transport so it was easy to explore other cities. Miss the TF gang already (:

Me and my friend Lotta worked at the TwinFin Cafe for two weeks and had a great time. The entire staff is lovely and they were incredible patient teaching us all the different procedures and recipes. It felt very rewarding coming home after a hot and busy day, but it was all still very manageable. Time spend in Lagos is time well spent and we are both quite sad to leave after such a short time and hope to come back one day. We would recommend this volunteer opportunity to everyone who loves a lively city and interesting people. Nothing can quite compare…..
