My experience at the surf camp was amazing, I was there for a month, I worked as a social media photographer and content creator, and the task where easy and everything agreed on was respected. I recommend having some basic german, as it make the experience more enriching, but you can still enjoy it without speaking the language, but English is really necessary to communicate. I'm very greatfull for this experience and highly recommend the surf camp!

Despite my short experience, due to some personal issues that forced me to return to Italy, I would recommend the surf camp because it's a truly pleasant place and excellent for those who love water sports and at the same time want to explore the most authentic Holland. The accommodations are comfortable and cozy, and I found the quality of the food very good (especially the dishes prepared by Denis) and very varied. Even though I'm not a very sociable person, the staff was very kind to me, especially regarding the windsurfing lessons, which I would have happily continued.

Overall, I had a good experience! The crew was really fun and I loved learning to windsurf and having access to water sports and bikes. However, almost everyone speaks German. I knew this beforehand, but I often felt left out, especially at meals and in the evenings. There was also a lack of organization and I sometimes felt lost or like there wasn’t much to do. Despite this, I learned a lot and had fun. I would recommend it, especially if you speak German!

The place is beautiful, surrounded by nature, and great for water sports, but the experience was not. The food, volunteers' room, and work conditions are excellent and fair. Denis, who is in charge, is welcoming and tried to talk to me whenever possible. However, they only accept 1–2 volunteers at a time, the whole team only speaks German, and I felt lonely and isolated 100% of the time, especially during meals. I wouldn't recommend it if you only have basic English or are looking for genuine cultural exchange and interaction. There is basically no exchange there.

All the staff were friendly and always willing to help. They encouraged us to enjoy the surf camp facilities — we could go kayaking, paddle boarding, sailing, or play beach volleyball anytime. We also had bikes, so it was easy to cycle into town in 10 minutes. On weekends, they kindly drove us to the train station. It's a peaceful place, perfect for staying active and watching beautiful sunsets. The town is small, but Amsterdam and nearby cities are easy to reach (for budget travelers trains can be pricey). I really enjoyed my time at Lifetime Sports and recommend it!

During the time I was there, I stayed very engaged and learned a lot. I enjoyed the parties and the flexibility, the teamwork, and the opportunity to interact with the groups in general. If I had the chance, I would go back there again.

Had an amazing time at the surf camp. The work was easy, the facilities are great, the food is tasty, the staff are friendly and most importantly - they know how to party. Of course, its important to mention that most of the people in the camp primarily speak German, so it's important to put yourself out there and be outgoing despite the language barrier, believe me - you won't regret it. Oh, and this is the best place to learn windsurfing!

My time at the surf camp was legendary! A very large Dankeschön to the entire team. Immediately was welcomed in and enjoyed some epic parties , picked up a little German, got some tennis in and of course time out on the water wind surfing. Food is great! Room was great! Work hours are scheduled and tasks laid out. All necessary equipment provided and the team is always available to answer questions. A true gem of Worldpackers. Many cheers from Canada and best of luck with the rest of the season. May the winds be strong and the beer stronger
