Volunteering at ACOTPRO was truly amazing and special experience, the place itself is in a very special location and helping with the turtles is nice, also the other volunteers and locals were all amazing people and it was fun socializing, and connecting with the nature (lots of animals around camp). Camp needs some maintenance, and the room doesn't have a floor what is kinda a problem but overall it's is a really good place and would recommend this volunteering experience to everyone.

Beautiful place in nature where you can meet new people and get in touch with local culture. I only wish host was more involved( you wont get to do stuff if you dont ask them few times.) All tasks were easy and a lot of free days.

I spent 2 amazing weeks at ACOTPRO camp helping with the turtle project! Alba and Manuel were so welcoming and passionate, always happy to explain each step of the turtles' lifecycle. Most members spoke Spanish, which was great for practice and learning local life. The work was easy and meaningful – night patrols, beach/area cleaning, turtle releases, nests exhumation. The camp between jungle and beach was peaceful with great meals and comfy beds. No WiFi and limited electricity helped connect with nature, and other volunteers! Thank you ACOTPRO for this unforgettable experience! Pura vida ☀️

From the very first moment I arrived, Manuel and Alba were incredibly welcoming and always ready to help with anything I needed. The work itself is very light, with plenty of free time, but the activities dedicated to the sea turtles are truly amazing — you get the chance to learn so much about them. I genuinely recommend this program to anyone looking for a meaningful and relaxed volunteer experience. is a great place to connect with nature, meet wonderful people, and enjoy a really positive atmosphere. AcotPro quickly starts to feel like a second family and a second home. Pura Vida!
