Caro volunteered with us for a couple of months.
She was a great volunteer and picked up the way things work here very quickly, always did what she needed to do, and was awesome with all guests who stayed here during those couple of months.
I would recommend Caro for any future volunteering opportunities, or anything to do with the backpacker life.

Spent a few months here during the Jbay open. Daz is a cool guy. Lots of friendly local faces also hang around the hostel so you really feel like a part of the town by the time you leave. Surf was rad, job was laid back and people were usually flexible about switching shifts and giving you extra time here and there when the waves were cookin'.
