I spent all of July volunteering at the the surf the surf the surf camp with my best friend and it was an amazing experience filled with friendships, surf lessons, and many adventures. The work was fair and my role included cleaning, breakfast setup, check ins, and check outs. There was plenty of time to explore Cascais and the neighboring cities. Drica was so welcoming and hardworking, and the volunteer team felt like a family that I will always remember. The only downside was that we were sometimes asked to move rooms or beds to accommodate guests with little notice, but I would still recommend this experience!

I spent four weeks volunteering at the the surf the surf the surf camp Surfcamp, and from the very beginning it felt like a second home. It was my first time volunteering and I couldn't have asked for a better place. The atmosphere was welcoming, the people were incredible, and the sense of community made the experience truly special. David and Drica, who run the place, are warm, fun, and genuinely care about their volunteers. I'm so grateful for my time there and highly recommend it to anyone considering volunteering.

I volunteered for 4 weeks and I had an incredible experience! It was the first time I did anything like this and I couldn't have asked for a better place. David is a super good host and takes very good care of you. We had so much fun and all the other volunteers were super kind. We got to learn how to surf, we had barbecues and did yoga. The job was super easy, I took care of the breakfast and cleaning. You had lots of spare time to explore the beautiful city. The house is also super nice and clean with a cozy yard! I would totally recommend to anyone who wants to have a great experience!!!
