My experience at COPROT was absolutely incredible - I can hardly put into words everything I experienced and learned there! I am deeply grateful for every moment! From the very first day, I felt surrounded by open-hearted people who truly cared for one another. Especially working with the sea turtles was one of the most magical and unforgettable things I’ve ever done. Living in the jungle and spotting so many animals in their natural habitat made the experience even more unique. I can recommend this project to anyone who is ready for a adventure that will stay with you long after you leave!!

I had an amazing time!! The project is truly such a beautiful conservation effort and I was happy to be a part of it. The staff was incredibly welcoming and gave us clear schedules to follow. The team was increasing supportive when I had to sit out a morning patrol due to my foot injury. If you want to meet some great people and have a magical experience with the turtles on the beach, this is the place. Ps: make sure you bring snacks

I had an amazing experience at COPROT, I met so many amazing people and got to learn so much throughout my time there. From working with turtles to just spending time with everyone, I loved every part of it. I will always cherish the memories that I made through this experience and I 100% recommend this experience to everyone.

Volunteering with COPROT was an amazing experience! I loved getting to work up close with sea turtles and I learned a lot. You become fully immersed in nature here. It is very remote and no enclosed spaces so keep in mind it may not be for everyone. Everyone here was so friendly and I felt accepted right away. The host made it very easy to schedule any tours or activities. The only suggestion I have is that I wish I could have seen what our work was doing. What are we using the research for and what is its impact? I think it would be awesome to include volunteers in that. Thank you COPROT!

Thanks so much for this feedback Lydia, you are so right that understanding the greater context of the work is very important! Our data goes to the Costa Rican government for our conservation area (SINAC) that supports development of conservation strategy and policy making. We will find ways to incorporate this into our volunteer briefings going forward :) Thank you so much for coming it was so wonderful to have you!!

I had such a wonderful time volunteering with COPROT. For my first solo trip, I felt very safe with the hosts and other campers. Everyone was very friendly and understanding. I ended up not feeling well so I did come home early, but my camp coordinators didn’t hesitate to help me figure out a plan to get back home. Our daily tasks were clearly laid out for us, and once we were finished, we had plenty of down time. We also got to visit the other camp and have some fun with them as well. While the work can be a bit tired, walking on the beach that is, it was a fun learning experience!
