The hosts are inviting enthusiastic and hands-on helpers to join them in refreshing their home and garden by the Adriatic coast.

The project is varied and engaging, making it ideal for those who enjoy trying new things, staying active, and experiencing life in a coastal community.
Volunteer by the Beach in Croatia: Tasks & Roles
Each day brings something different, from dismantling old furniture and clearing storage areas to removing wallpaper, painting, gardening, or lending a hand with cleaning. The work is practical and rewarding, and there is always something useful to do around the property. No specialist knowledge is required—what matters most is a positive outlook and a willingness to get involved. The hosts encourage everyone to contribute in their own way, with plenty of support along the way.
Volunteer by the Beach in Croatia: Living & Getting There
Volunteers are accommodated in a comfortable space designed for rest and relaxation. The bedroom has two beds, a private bathroom, reliable Wi-Fi, and the soothing backdrop of the sea just outside. The house is only steps from a sandy beach and about a kilometre from a charming village, where local cafés and small shops give a taste of everyday Croatian life.
Getting here is straightforward. Split Saint Jerome Airport (SPU) is only 35 minutes away, and there are also convenient FlixBus stations in Šibenik and Trogir. On arrival, volunteers are welcomed warmly and soon feel part of the household.
Volunteer by the Beach in Croatia: What Else
Life at the property is as much about leisure and discovery as it is about helping. Free time can be spent relaxing on the beach, exploring nearby villages, or setting off on weekend adventures. The hosts encourage cultural exchange, with shared meals, friendly conversations, and plenty of opportunities to learn from one another. This chance to volunteer by the beach in Croatia offers the perfect mix of meaningful contribution, seaside living, and authentic cultural experience.
