Marine turtle program. Our marine nursery remains open year round to protect all endangered marine turtle species, including the Olive Ridley, the Eastern Pacific Green and the Leatherback . Collect nests from six different beaches and relocate to the nursery. Maintain a nursery environment, regulate temperatures, monitor the development and release of the hatchlings, and maintain records. No special skills or education is required to become a volunteer, only the willingness to work in adverse weather conditions, at night.
Volunteers receive no salary and pay no fees.
In all cases volunteers will be responsible for their travel and living expenses, except lodging in most cases. Volunteers with families may pay all or part of their rent, while couples and singles may share free or low-cost housing.
