Do you want to soak up the natural beauty of the Greek Islands while contributing to the conservation of one of its most beloved marine inhabitants? Join our research-based sea turtle protection project on the island of Kefalonia for an experience you won’t soon forget.

Choose between our two project sites in Lixouri and Argostoli — or visit them both! Each location offers exciting opportunities to engage in data collection and conservation work among a diverse team of international researchers and volunteers.

Start your day with a sunrise bicycle ride to the beach or a visit to the sea turtle residents at Argostoli harbor to collect data and observe their behavior. Spend the afternoon listening to a researcher's presentation on important conservation themes or cooling off in the Ionian Sea. Finish the evening with a beach profile survey, with fellow volunteers at trivia night, or on the beach awaiting female turtles to come ashore and lay their eggs. The activities are designed to allow volunteers to experience many different elements of sea turtle conservation, among the beautiful backdrop of the Kefalonian coast.
