Never do this volunteering! I've just finished my time with Andrea and his team, and I can only warn you: you'll arrive as a stranger and leave with tears in your eyes. You'll share a simple flat with strangers who quickly become family. Days are sun, laughter, and kitesurfing (which you'll hate at first, then love). Nights are stories you'll never forget. It's not just volunteering, it's adapting, learning, and falling in love with Sicily and the people who make it magic. Thank you Andrea, see you soon (maybe Brazil πŸ‡§πŸ‡·πŸŽ‰). Amoni!!!

This job is an amazing opportunity for anyone looking to learn kitesurfing, interact with the local team daily, and practice Italian. The community here is welcoming, kind, and helpful. Every day you get to hang out at the beach and assist customers with their kites. I will cherish the memories and community at the host, hoping to come back again!

This was an amazing experience Andrea is a legend of a host and the community he's made are awesome. I was lucky enough to be there with some good wind so I was able to do my lessons before and after my shifts then eventually get to the point of working on tricks. If you're wanting to get stuck in to the kite life for a while I can't recommend this place enough, just be prepared that if you live with great volunteers and fall in love with the sport like me, you're gonna have a hard time leaving. πŸ€™

My stay here was amazing, Andrea and the staff, environment, and everything from meeting the best people/getting to learn new skills. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to be a in a great local town and and be around a very unique community. While I was here the work hours were always respected and the information was clear and taught well through the beginning. You will also have the chance to get lessons for kite surfing through your experience and have a great time doing it. I have already booked my return date because of the amazing opportunity this was. Can't wait to be back!!!

I had a wonderful experience at the host. The hours were always respected (4h a day for 6 days), just expect to be flexible as the shifts will depend on the wind. The tasks were pretty easy and you will always receive help when needed. Andrea, Alice and the team were amazing and I will remember this experience with so much love <3 . Please note that the place is not in Center Marsala, so this is great to disconnect if you want or have medium interaction with people doing kite. There are some bars close to the lagoon and it's beautiful to hang out in the afternoons.
