Join the Ocean Love Fest team for about one week on a small fleet of wooden boats in the Mediterranean Sea. This floating festival combines yoga, live music, dance, workshops and water sports with a strong focus on ocean care and marine conservation.

As a volunteer, you help around 5 hours a day (about 30 hours per week). Tasks can include supporting the artists, preparing workshops, decorating and setting up spaces, helping with equipment and logistics, or running small errands for the crew.

In exchange you receive free accommodation in a shared cabin, all meals and basic drinks, plus local transport from Bodrum, Turkey. You also join the daily program of yoga, dance, meditations and evening concerts when you are off duty.
