Volunteer Programs in Curieuse Island, Seychelles

I had a great time participating in the marine conservation program in the Seychelles! The training on EFR and advanced open water the first week was a nice way to be introduced to the base and get used to the schedule. From the 2nd week onwards you get presentations and practice for surveys. I also loved being involved in the data processing, in particular the models created from photogrammetry surveys. Being able to dive every day really helped me improve and feel more comfortable in the water. The location is gorgeous and I've learned so much during my 4 weeks here!

I loved volunteering at Cap Ternay. During my time there I not only participated in important conservation work, but I also improved significantly as a diver and met some extremely nice people. Accommodations are indeed basic which can be quite jarring at first, however once acclimatized, you will have the experience of a lifetime.
