Our oceans are our largest habitat, and contain between 50 - 80% of all life on Earth. They’re a bio-diverse wonder, and the source of at least half our oxygen. But they’re under threat, with coral bleaching, pollution, over-fishing and rising sea-levels. Help to protect our oceans, as a marine conservation volunteer in one of our epic locations.
Imagine releasing baby sea-turtles into the sea in Costa Rica, collecting eggs from endangered African penguins, or looking into the prehistoric eye of a great white shark from a diving-cage in South Africa. Our trips are packed with experiences that you’ll never forget. And you can go home knowing that as well as exploring this beautiful planet, you helped leave it a better place.
