Dettagli del programma

Volunteer activities are scheduled daily, according to the program of the season, depending on the different projects being undertaken, plus the weather. Nature is unpredictable and sometimes plans must be changed, due to unforeseen circumstances. Please understand that staff are doing their
best to make sure everyone gets to carry out a variety of project activities, but sometimes unexpected things happen and plans don’t always work out!
There are no “free days” on the project, but typically there is plenty of time to enjoy the island and different tours that there are on offer.

Activities
Survey to estimate sea turtle numbers
Seagrass monitoring with a researcher based in one of the villages.
Tourist awareness and eco-tourism: Delivering turtle talks to tourists/museum tours
Collecting data on beach debris
Impact of tourism on the island - evaluating local resorts' impact

Attività e turni

Volunteers work in shifts and in teams (the size will depend upon volunteer numbers). They will undertake different activities each day. There is early morning (about at 5.30 am) monitoring, walking one of the 3 beaches (5 -10km long, about 2-3 hours walk).
• Breakfast
• 9.00: Weather condition measurements.
• 9.30: ‘Observations from the rock’. Two volunteers will go up on the rock near GBB resort to observe the sea, looking for sea turtles swimming in the water, dolphins or other animals.
• If you are not on shift for this you might have free time for swimming, walking, reading etc.
• Every week, we take a boat out and check Ko Ra beaches. Some
of the beaches are monitored by walking and this requires a jump from
the boat and swimming ashore and back to the boat.
13.00 – 14.00 - lunch
Afternoon: Various small projects
14:30: 2nd shift of observation from the rock.
7.00: Dinner
