    🌿 Welcome to Kaş – A Reborn Backpackers’ Home Since 1985 🇹🇷

    Hello my friend 🙋🏼‍♂️
    Welcome to Türkiye!

    We are the first backpacker hostel & bungalow establishment in the Kaş region, founded in 1985. Built into the hillside with lush gardens, wooden bungalows, and a charming stone house dormitory, our place has preserved its authentic spirit for over 40 years.

    In 2011, during the construction of Kaş Marina and the surrounding road, the property was heavily damaged. Thanks to a global call for support, volunteers from all around the world came together to help rebuild it.
    ✨ International volunteers were the true heroes of our rebirth.

    In 2021, we opened Livorno Restaurant, a stone-oven Italian kitchen that quickly became a well-known name across Turkey 🍕🧿

    In 2024, with the addition of our new swimming pool, the facility evolved into a full diving resort.
    As a volunteer, you’ll have the opportunity to experience scuba diving and even take internationally recognized certification courses 🤿



    👋 About Me

    My name is Can. I’m an agricultural engineer (plant pathologist by profession). After 10 years in agribusiness in Istanbul, I moved to Kaş and have been running the camp with my family for the past 20 years.

    During winter, my wife and I spend the season in Koh Tao, Thailand 🇹🇭 working as diving instructors. If you’re planning to continue traveling after Turkey, we’re happy to guide you with recommendations and connections.



    🌍 Cultural Exchange Matters

    Workaway is about cultural sharing and international connection. For this reason, we kindly ask that Turkish citizens do not apply, as we aim to create an intercultural environment.



    🤝 Commitment & Responsibility

    Please apply only if you are genuinely committed.
    Volunteers who confirm their stay but do not arrive (without informing at least 5 days in advance) will be reported to Workaway.

    We value reliability, respect, and clear communication.



    😊 Hoping to See You!

    If you are open-minded, positive, and ready to be part of a social, sea-loving and international environment — we would love to welcome you.

    See you in Kaş 🤗

    Kas is a wonderful town for volunteers especially if you love sea, nature and history.
    Volunteering has enormous benefits for you. You will get a unique insight into Kas (Antiphellos -Lycia) that most backpackers will never get to see.
