Joaquin, Gabby and Kirra are super accommodating during your stay at the camping, they help out a great deal to make the stay as comfortable as possible. Cooking meals together was a highlight. They really want to share their special place they call home. The location is remote and living conditions can be difficult, but with the isolation comes disconnection with nature, great uncrowded surf (empty lineups at dawn/dusk) and stunning vistas. If you enjoy spending time in nature and away from the hustle n bustle and have a passion for surfing the camping is for you!

We had such an amazing time at the camping. Joaquin was an amazing host to us and many more people we met along the way, going above and beyond to make our time there seamless and as enjoyable as possible. What has been/is being created at this beautiful place is a must see and do! I have learnt so much through Joaquin's knowledge for the area and would not have had the same experience without him and his partner Gabi. Thank you both so much for this time, we will be back asap!!

We had an amazing experience at the camping with Joaquin and Gabby. They are passionate about building this campsite sustainably and are super welcoming. This volunteer experience is perfect if you are looking for off-grid, remote camping and epic surf in a beautiful beach with not much crowd. The hours of work were extremely flexible and minimal. We would love to come back, thank you!! Some helpful things to note: - Bring a head torch and insect repellant - Catch a colectivo to Santiago Astata (70 pesos) and meet them here in town so you can buy groceries for the week

This was my very first experience volunteering and Joaquin at the camping couldn't make it any better! We had such a nice welcome and went straight to Playa San Diego to camp and practice surf. Joaquin is very sweet and patient, he truly wants you to enjoy the beauty of this place. I left a little piece of heart there, I can't wait to return one day. The camping was really fun, we cooked amazing meals on the artisan wood fire stove, had good laugh and good waves. I'd recommend that you bring your own board to be sure you have availability any time. You'll definitely enjoy this place!

The camping fue para mi toda una experiencia de completa desconexión en la naturaleza; el mar, las aves y la completa tranquilidad y paz lo hicieron excepcional; sin duda es un lugar increíble para los amantes del surf si buscan buenas olas; pero también es perfecto para aquellos que buscan tranquilidad y desconexión. De igual manera tienes que ser consciente de que el campamento está alejado de la civilización, lo que implica que debes de estar abierto a las condiciones y ser capaz de adaptarte y pasarla bien. Joaquin y Gaby son unos anfitriones exelentes, siempre atentos y cuidadoso.
