I super recommend the the guest house, such a chill atmosphere, the house is amazing with a lot of options about what to do. It is a pleasure to know someone as Miguel, since I did feel well welcomed at this environment. Obrigado pa, tmj!!

I LOVED my time here with the other volunteers, if you want to learn to surf this is a great place to be. The waves are good for beginners and there's a surf school next door. The work is easy and reasonable, you can get by in the town without Portuguese but the social scene is all Portuguese.

The experience was just as I expected: the work was easy and rarely reached 4 hours, the atmosphere in the the guest house was very friendly, the town was peaceful and the nature breathtaking. I would recommend to anyone wanting to truly relax, get in touch with nature and live at a slow pace. What made the experience wonderful were the other volunteers I worked with and the guests staying at the house, which of course is not permanent but they deserve a shout-out. The one drawback is that while the work is short, you might be expected to be available during the day to check in the guests.

Overall, I did not enjoy my stay. I left after 3 nights. The pick up was supposed to be in the guest house but he changed the plans 1 hour before for Costa Nova (10 minutes by car), so it took me 5 hours instead of 1 to arrive at the meeting point. I didn't feel welcome, he hardly spoke to me and I had no information to know if anyone was going to sleep at the the guest house or not. In addition, I do not recommend going there out of season because there is literally no one in the the guest house and in the village. I suppose that in summer there is more entertainment and travelers.
