You’ll help with light house chores, gardening, small DIY projects, and support the fishermen of Noli with easy on-shore tasks like preparing nets. We also organize local events and parties, where you can assist with setup and enjoy the lively atmosphere.
In return, you’ll stay in a cozy private or shared room, with breakfast included and access to a full kitchen. Free time is yours to explore: kayaking, snorkeling, hiking, cooking workshops, cultural evenings, and discovering the medieval charm of Finalborgo.
