Turtle Conservation Project in Watamu, Kenya

The Turtle Conservation Volunteer Program in Watamu offers a unique opportunity to contribute to the protection and preservation of endangered sea turtles along Kenya’s pristine coastline. As a volunteer, you work closely with local conservationists in Watamu. Your duties include monitoring turtle nests, assisting with hatchling releases, conducting beach patrols to protect nesting sites, and participating in community education initiatives to raise awareness about the importance of marine conservation. Beyond fieldwork, you will immerse yourself in the local culture, live in a volunteer house with other international participants, and experience the rich biodiversity of the Watamu Marine National Park. The program is ideal for those passionate about marine or environmental conservation, or anyone looking to make a tangible difference in the fight against marine pollution and habitat destruction. Join us in safeguarding the future of sea turtles and enriching your understanding of marine ecosystems.
