Welcome to Barra de Pacuare, a natural paradise where the sea meets the jungle and river.
Our mission is to live sustainably and protect biodiversity.
From Feb/March, sea turtle season begins!
It means that our beach becomes a vital nesting site for leatherback, green, and hawksbill turtles.
Starting in February, we support the nearby conservation project with hatchery care and night patrols to protect nests and ensure hatchlings reach the ocean.
By volunteering with us, you’ll not only help save endangered turtles but also be part of a close-knit, international community. Together, we care for a garden, animals, and a small grocery store, all while embracing sustainable living practices.
Your actions here are essential for protecting these incredible species and preserving our planet's biodiversity. Join us in Barra de Pacuare for an unforgettable experience where adventure meets purpose.
Atividades & Turnos
We give our help to the sea turtle project nearby for building and caring the hatchery and doing night patrols to find sea turtles nesting and relocate the eggs in the hatchery.
The leatherback sea turtle is in danger of extinction so we feel it is really important to work to preserve them.
We also help with beach cleaning to contribute preserve sea turtles.
Typical day is :
- breakfast at 8
- work from 9 to 12/13h, it can be a hatchery shift
- have lunch
Most of the time, afternoon is free but you could help with the shop sometimes or do a hatchery shift.
By night, patrol on the beach to look for sea turtles nesting.
