The Experience

We are a group of four Italians deeply passionated with the charm of Portugal, embracing passions for surfing, good food, and Yoga. We run a small Surfhouse right near Ericeira, nestled between the Foz do Lizandro and São Julião surf hotspots. If you are looking for a sunny place to stay and work, just few minutes way from beautiful beaches and world-class waves, all within a chilled and relaxed atmosphere, our Surfhouse is your go-to spot!

The experience in the host was wonderful and will be unforgettable. The shifts are very light and give you complete freedom to explore and work remotely. The place is very welcoming, and the entire staff is kind and hospitable, flexible, and always ready to help if you need it. It is hard to find something comparable to this volunteer experience; we were truly lucky. Thank you for everything, I hope to see you again soon.

My time at the host was amazing. I had an opportunity to meet so many great people, volunteers but also guests. Owners of the host are very nice and easygoing, I felt very welcomed and respected. The responsibilities and scheduled were thought through and gave opportunity to use the time free in good way. Hopefully see you again ❤️

My time at the host went by so so quickly and i absolutely loved my time here so much. The hosts were extremely welcoming and i immediately felt right at home and taken care of. The work was also really enjoyable and a highlight was being able to work with the chef preparing dinner for guests. Highly recommend to anyone looking to spend some time in Ericeira and wanting the perfect place to volunteer at 🫶🤙
