Description

Come take part in an exciting conservation expedition with Coral Cay! Choose between Cambodia, which is also known as The Kingdom of Wonder, with magnificent temples, pristine beaches and wonderful rural charm. Or choose the Philippines and help contribute towards preserving some of the least disturbed and least researched habitats of Southern Leyte.

If you prefer to visit both locations, Coral Cay is running two exciting promotions this year for our Philippines and Cambodia expedition sites. Choose between the South East Asia Combo Deal or the Philippines Conservation Deal 2011!

South East Asia Combo Deal*
Book 8 weeks in Cambodia and get 4 weeks in the Philippines for FREE! Both projects offer a diverse range of conservation activities that create an exciting opportunity for volunteers. Get all the excitement of exploring 2 destinations, the vibrancy of 2 cultures and the natural beauty of the Philippines and Cambodia tied up into one expedition!

Philippines Conservation Deal 2011!*
Book for six weeks or less onto our Philippines expedition and get 15% OFF if you participate between now and the end of the year! Whale Shark season is between November and March in the Philippines, and there have recently been sightings close to our conservation site. Coral Cay is excited to offer this deal to our volunteers. Book with Coral Cay now and there is a possibility you will encounter one of these magnificent Whale Sharks!

* South East Asia Combo Deal and Philippines Conservation Deal 2011 Terms and Conditions: Both deals are not in conjunction with any other offer.

* Philippines Conservation Deal 2011: volunteers must book and depart on an expedition before December 31st, 2011.

Highlights

* PADI dive training from Open water to Dive Master level with our qualified scuba diving instructors. (For marine expeditions only)

* Rare opportunity to learn the science behind marine conservation and bring out the conservationist or scientist in you.

* Many join up to enhance their CV and start a career in conservation. Coral Cay are a world renowned and well respected organisation which is why so many volunteers choose us.

* We are one of the very few organisations that offer expeditions for just two weeks. So if you don't quite have too much time to take off don't worry we still have the expedition for you.

* We work hard to offer the best experience in some of the most idyllic locations at the best price, so check out our prices to see just how competitive we are in the conservation and gap year market.

* We offer volunteers the opportunity to improve their knowledge about marine conservation and gain recognised qualifications such as Reef Check training, and emergency first response.

* For students considering going to university who want some additional UCAS points we offer the opportunity for volunteers to earn up to 70 UCAS points by participating on an expedition.

* We also have fantastic rates for groups. We go above and beyond to provide tailor made expeditions so whatever the request we will do all we can to cater to your needs. To discuss options please just get in touch.

* Finally, when you are trying to differentiate from the masses of gap year and volunteering organisations today, remember that Coral Cay Conservation has been invited to work in the expedition location by the local government, communities and NGO's. Our conservation expeditions really do make a difference!
