About This Project

If you are like “work hard, play hard”, you will be interested in gathering a bunch of friends and join us in this epic program.

Join a local fishing community in the paradisiac barrier islands of ria Formosa. Culatra island has been suffering the pressure of human presence. If not controlled, trash produced by habitants and visitors may become a serious problem affecting the health of the local community and the wildlife in the earth of this incredible nature reserve.

This program aims to help the local community to improve the littering in the shoreline (beach, dunes and fishing harbour), protecting marine animals, as well as swimmers and beachgoers.

You will be joining clean-up actions and awareness campaigns targeted towards visitors and inhabitants. Also, you will also have the chance to learn how to fish and cook traditional dishes and experience your sail baptism!

Remember all waterways lead to the ocean!
