Surf School Volunteer

My time at the guest house was truly amazing!! I met so many nice people and had lots of great surf sessions. The work was super easy and I had plenty of free time to enjoy different activities. In the evenings we had a lot of dinners and barbecues together which I really loved. In the beginning, communication was a bit challenging, but once you're settled in, it gets much easier. Just so you know: In high season, the work shifts are 6 hours per day, and breakfast is only included during that time. All in all, it was a really great experience that I am very grateful for! Thank You! <3

I loved this experience so much that I might even come back🙈 The people are amazing (Mariana was super helpful and a perfect host) and the instructors became friends as well. The shed in Malveira is not perfect, but if you're into nature and socializing this is for you! I was doing the social media and it was amazing, I would totally recommend 3>

I stayed here for three weeks, helping out with their social media, and honestly had such a great time! The team is incredibly friendly and made me feel at home right away. I got to join surf lessons and we also went biking and hiking in the beautiful surrounding nature. It's a bit outside the city, but that's part of its charm – peaceful, green, and close to the beach. The hostel itself is super cozy, with a relaxed vibe that makes it easy to settle in. I left with good memories and new friends. Will definitely come back!

My time at MobyDick flew by. Because I liked it so much, I stayed a little longer. Pedro and everyone else made me feel very welcome and comfortable. I was often able to attend surf lessons and the working hours were really relaxed and flexible. As I missed the hustle and bustle of the high season sometimes, I initiated a few community dinners, which was fun. Pedro did everything to make me feel comfortable. Thank you very much! I would love to come back!

The surf lessons&surf teachers are great. I enjoyed my days with my colleagues & shared many laughs.In the beginning I felt like I clicked really good with the hosts so I was disappointed on how my stay ended. First week was so fun. I was there for the position content creator but ended up working way more shifts breakfast,checkin ,cleaning) than agreed. I communicated that but nothing changed. 4 days before leaving the host sent me a message about everything I did ”wrong” and asked me to leave last minute,never had a conversation with me about any of it before. I did'nt feel respected:(

Mariana is a sweet host, and I had a good time during my 1,5 weeks volunteering. There are lots of day-trips to do around the hostel. Luckily I also knew some people in Lisbon, so I was able to go out and socialize there. Mariana warned me about it beforehand, but in December the hostel in Malveira did not have any guests interested in surfing (only 1 surf-lesson during my stay, I did not try taking the surfboard in public transport by myself). The volunteer room should also be renovated! I am sure that volunteering at the guest house in the summer is a completely different, more fun experience.

I had such an incredible time at Mobydick! Mariana and Pedro were super kind and welcoming hosts and I met so many great people while I was there!! After a while it really started to feel like home. The work was completely doable and fair. The whole atmosphere of it was very chill and relaxed and there was a lot of time to go to beautiful beaches and enjoy the natural park right next door, as well as explore some of the cities around. And I really enjoyed all the surf classes I could join, always had so much fun! All in all amazing experience, will miss the place and the people a lot!!

I'm really grateful for the chance to volunteer there. I was only supposed to stay for two weeks, but I ended up staying the whole month. Everybody was so kind and welcoming. Thank you Pedro for being such a cool host and person!! When I was there, it was already a bit off-season, so it was calmer and with all the long-term guests, I felt more like at home than in the hostel. The work was very chill and I had a lot of time to relax and just enjoy the good life. Thank you sooo much!! Obrigada
