Volunteering in CoCo Bongo, is fun and a wonderful cultural exchange.

We host 4-5 volunteers at a time, so check with us on dates and availability.

Volunteering in a small beach town

Volunteering all over the world is always fun. If you’re looking for a nice small beach town and new experiences, volunteer with us by helping with tasks for the Hostel, get to know a little of our day-to-day, make new friends and get to know Bahia. 

We welcome volunteers who can commit to helping out for at least a month(We do make some exceptions for shorter stays), but we love it if volunteers stay longer! We take up to 4 volunteers at a time. Volunteers are expected to help out 30 hours a week and assist with a bit of everything – cleaning around the hostel, gardening, helping out with guests making them feel at ease. If you can paint murals, that would be very cool, and we have a few spots left.
