I've spent 1 month here as my first worldpackers experience and it was amazing. The island is beautiful, peaceful and there are many natural wonders to discover, it offers a perfect balance of hiking and relaxing by the sea. The work is easy and mainly involves cleaning and gardening. There is plenty of time to explore the island. Hugo and Natacha are the perfect hosts, they're very sensitive and caring, flexible and strive to make your experience the best it can be. To get around having a car is essential. I always hitchhiked and never had any problems, and it allowed me to meet many people

I had a really good time at the camping. The work is easy and as described. The only way to get around the island is by car or hitchhiking. For me it was the first time hitchhiking and I had no problems. If you love nature and enjoy camping this is the perfect place for you :)
