Costa Rica–Sea Turtle Volunteering & Adventure Tour - Teens

Join a group of international volunteers aged 15–17 on a two-week program in Costa Rica, where sea turtle conservation work is combined with cultural discovery and outdoor adventure. The journey begins in San José before continuing to Arenal and the Nicoya Peninsula, with activities ranging from sea turtle protection and reforestation projects to community initiatives in environmental education. Beyond volunteering, you’ll explore Costa Rica’s remarkable landscapes on river safaris and night walks, visit volcanoes and waterfalls. This carefully designed itinerary offers teens the chance to contribute to environmental efforts while experiencing the country’s biodiversity and culture in a fun and memorable way.

This program partners with a conservation research station on the Nicoya Peninsula that focuses on biodiversity protection, sustainable living, and community engagement. The station runs projects in sea turtle protection, reforestation, permaculture, environmental education, and community development. Volunteers gain hands-on experience while contributing to meaningful environmental and social initiatives.
