Description
LOOKING FOR SURF INSTRUCTORS starting on the 1st of January 2026.
Step into our slice of paradise—where yoga, surfing, and the waves keep time with the days.
Welcome to The Hostel !
You’ll share laughs, adventures, and sunsets with travelers and volunteers from every corner of the world, creating friendships that linger long after you’ve gone.
More than just a hostel, this is a family.
Nestled in the charming, peaceful fishing village of El Transito on Nicaragua’s Pacific coast near León, golden sunsets spill across the sky above black-sand beaches, and the ocean’s heartbeat becomes part of your own.
With our wide selection of surfboards, daily yoga classes, family-style dinners, and a breathtaking oceanfront setting, you might just find yourself never wanting to leave.

The little fishing village of El Transito where we chose to build our hostel 10 years ago is the perfect spot to mingle with locals and practice your spanish. You will learn how to surf and have the chance to practice yoga every day in front of the ocean.
Help
We’re looking for amazing humans to join our little family here in El Tránsito, Nicaragua, all year round! Your main superpower? Making guests feel welcome, happy, and part of the crew.

We’re looking for friendly, outgoing, English-speaking legends who can commit to 1–2 months, love working in a team, and aren’t afraid to jump in and take initiative.
