Description

This project is dedicated to the protection of endangered sea turtles. The turtle camp is looking for volunteers to help biologists and technicians in the conservation of the sea turtle population. Primary volunteer duties include patrolling the beach, collecting turtle eggs, and the placing of eggs in incubation centres. When the eggs hatch volunteers assist in the ‘cleaning’ of the nest and the release of the baby turtles just before sunset. Volunteers also assist with general camp and beach clean-up tasks.

The project costs £60 for 10 days which includes accommodation and a fully equipped kitchen. There is no charge for additional days.

Please visit the VLA website to find out how to request further information.
