Our Seasonal Staff are normally employed from June until September (4 months).

​

We can provide Accommodation.

To be a SUP and Coasteering Instructor you will need to hold all of the essential qualifications listed below. We pay our Seasonal Instructors €60 per day and they normally work 5 to 7 days a week, 8h per day.

The diversity of work we do is amazing. We work mostly with small or large groups of friends looking for adventure, couples on active holidays, individuals backpacking through Europe, stag and hen groups, families with kids, the odd TV show or commercial shooting… We operate on a variety of locations around the beautiful coastline, depending on the day's conditions and the type of tour.

A typical day starts with the SUP Caves Tour and ends with our Coasteering session: for each activity we'll be getting equipment ready, meeting clients, driving to the beach, teaching and guiding the tour and then cleaning/storing equipment at base.

The Algarve (mainly Vila do Bispo (Sagres) area) offers superb opportunities for watersports and nature adventures; we have some of the best Stand-up Paddling, Surfing, Climbing, Sea Kayaking, Coasteering, Kite Surfing, Windsurfing, BTT, Walking and Fishing in Europe.

It is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the World, where there's always new people to meet and plenty of entertainment, while maintaining its local costumes, History and Coastal Nature Reserve status.
