We are looking for a communicative, responsible and proactive person to help with the hostel's reception, organization, cleaning, and general services. In return, you live the routine of a real surf camp, meet people from all over the world and enjoy the beach, surfing and the vibe of Recreio, the surfing-focused area of Rio de Janeiro! 🌊🤙

I had an amazing time here, it felt like home right away!! They were super accommodating with me only speaking English. Connecting with a ton of cool people, the hostel put together quite a few events they have a really amazing community. I volunteered two weeks before we opened and two after. The owners have a way of attracting good people. Thank you so much for the experience best of luck!<3

WaveHunters was much more than a volunteer experience; it was finding a family far from home. I was lucky to be part of building the hostel from scratch and learning things I never imagined: masonry, painting, plants, and much more. But the best part was the people, the lunches, the dinners, the days of surfing, the laughter, and all the moments shared. They always made me feel cared for and loved. I leave with countless learnings, beautiful memories, and an enormous love for this family. Thank you for making me feel at home. ❤️
