Program Overview

Costa Rica is a nature lover's paradise. Experience stunning beaches, lush jungles, and exotic wildlife found nowhere else on Earth!

On our Sea Turtle Conservation trip, you will spend your days volunteering with one of our project partners in Costa Rica. Most of your volunteer duties happen in the afternoon and evening when the turtle hatchlings are most active. This means you can spend your mornings lounging on black sand beaches and swimming in the ocean, teeming with life.

You won't just be making a difference in the lives of sea turtles in Costa Rica, but you will also live in one of the most biodiverse and nature-forward countries on Earth. You can explore the active volcanoes and mist forests of this adventurous country with travelers you meet along the way.

We offer the full package for a smooth volunteer abroad experience. When you book with us, you can leave the guesswork out of organizing your travels and focus on having the trip of a lifetime.

Use code GA100 for up to $100 off your trip.
