The hostel is an incredible place to volunteer! It's right in front of the best and most popular beach and surf spot in the hostel. The entire staff team is amazing—they were always there to help me, and they even connected me with gigs and work opportunities around town since they know so many people. Staying in the same room as the guests made it super easy to get to know them and interact. I totally recommend this experience to any traveler looking for an unforgettable time in the hostel! Aqeel, Nabeel, Sana and all the team, I love you guys!
