    Are you ready to embark on a transformative journey immersed in the natural beauty of a quaint Portuguese fishing beach town? Look no further! Quinta invites passionate individuals to join us from May to September for a unique workaway experience like no other. We run an NGO whos mission is to bring people closer to nature, animals and each other.

    As a member of our dynamic community, you'll be at the heart of meaningful projects aimed at nurturing the environment, empowering local youth, and fostering sustainable living practices. From gardening and farming to construction and beach cleans, your contributions will directly impact the well-being of our coastal ecosystem and the surrounding community.

    Expect days filled with rewarding challenges and outdoor adventures as you dive into various tasks alongside like-minded individuals. Whether you're tending to lush gardens, helping renovate and old traditional Portuguese house with original bread oven and lots of land, or engaging in youth programs, every moment is an opportunity for growth and connection.

    As a Workaway participant, you'll find comfort in our rustic yet charming accommodations. Picture hot showers under the open sky, communal outdoor living spaces, and nights spent nestled in a cozy tent amidst the serene backdrop of our farm.

    We're seeking individuals who thrive in independent settings and possess a deep appreciation for nature, adventure, and animal companionship. If you're someone who embraces change with ease and finds joy in living in harmony with the environment, we welcome you to join our vibrant community
