Join an active conservation research centre to support their work in researching and conserving amazing local wildlife, including endangered sea turtles. During turtle season you will help monitor and protect nesting sea turtles and release hatchlings into the Pacific Ocean. Throughout the year there are several active scientific research projects to immerse yourself in Costa Rica’s wildlife.
Located on a remote Costa Rican beach, far from tourists and development, this turtle conservation project combines experiencing life on the Pacific coast with helping to protect an endangered species. Track nesting turtles, protect their eggs, release their babies safely back to sea and help to promote conservation in this rural area.
Experience a family holiday like no other in Costa Rica, helping to conserve turtles on the beaches of the Pacific Coast. You and your family will live away from the crowds in a stunning community, patrolling the beach at night to look for nesting turtles and protect their eggs. You may even be lucky enough to release baby turtles back to the sea!
