About US: SEE Turtles is a
non-profit conservation tourism project
that works with sea turtle
conservation organizations to promote
responsible turtle watching. The
project is part of Ocean Revolution,
sponsored by The Ocean Foundation. For
those who can brave long
walks, late night shifts, insects, and occasional
downpours, working
with sea turtles can be one of the most rewarding
experiences of your
life. Volunteering on a sea turtle nesting beach is not
a vacation;
it is an opportunity to make a difference, participate in
scientific
research, and meet new people. Sea turtle conservation
volunteering
is hard work but the benefits include new experiences, lots of
good
exercise, learning a new language, and a good addition to a
growing
resume. At most sea turtle projects, the work involves
participating
in nightly beach patrols, looking for nesting sea turtles and
helping
researchers collect data. SEE Turtles can connect you for free
with
an international sea turtle conservation project. We work
with
volunteer projects in Mexico, Costa Rica, Tobago and
Guatemala.
