    About the program

    This Bali based non-profit organization focuses on restoring damaged coral reef across Bali and Indonesia. Bali's reefs belong to the Coral Triangle and are home to different kind of coral species. However, due to massive human influence, coral reefs keep on dying and only 35% of Indonesia's coral reefs are in good health - with the number in decline. Most of the reefs in North Bali have died due to the constructive fishing methods of the local fishermen over the past decades. The village of Pemuteran took action and forced a change. Not only does the reef restoration program encourage the growth of the reef, also the local community is very active in promoting sustainable fishing practices and prohibits destructive fishing practices. Pemuteran is now a leading village for sustainable tourism in Bali.

    Volunteers will be a part of local diver team whose responsibilities is to monitor and keep the coral reefs grow healthily. If you are not certified SCUBA DIVER, then you may take OPEN WATER SCUBA course on the first week of your program. After mastering SCUBA DIVING skill, you will be part of its coral restoration team, the front-liners of the grass-root community based coral restoration effort. You don't need to bring any equipment, as it will be provided by the dive center. 

    Volunteers will spend most of the work time both under water and in the local community, with minor task of reporting/computer work. You will be expected to work in restoration center in the morning and in the local community in the afternoon, or it could be reversed depends on the appointment and weather and sea condition. There is the possibility that you are not allowed to dive on some days due to the weather or water conditions. Your safety is the main concern!

    You don't necessarily need to study Marine Conservation or Biology, but you should have a general interest in marine conservation and should be proactive. There is a lot to do for those who are able to open their eyes!

    Although the village is well developed, it is still a very laid back vibe. There are no parties or much entertainment in the evening. If you are a nature lover, an ocean defender and enjoy time off from hectic lifestyle, this is the right place to be for you. 

    Volunteer visa information

    To work as a volunteer in Indonesia, you will need to possess a volunteer visa with a C6 visa index. This visa is issued to applicants who are going to Indonesia for a volunteer visit, for example, visiting social organizations with the same type of activities; for exchange visits between educational institutions, carrying out research, and attending a training program in Indonesia. Volunteer visa holders are not allowed to receive any salary for the visit they do. You have to apply before your arrival in Bali. We will assist you. To be able to volunteer or do an internship legally, you do need the C6 Volunteer Visa. Any other visa type is not sufficient. 

    • Time of application: 2 weeks. The visa application process takes some time, and due to other reasons (Indonesian holidays or strike of postal employees, for example), the process can be delayed. Therefore, we recommend starting the application process the latest around 4 weeks prior to your arrival in Indonesia.
    • Validity: 60 days after arrival
    • Extension: can be extended up to 3 times every 60 days
    • Costs: 185 Euro
    • Cost of extension in Bali: starting from 1,600,000 IDR via private agency, 1,500,000 IDR non-agency assistance extension

    This guideline helps you through the visa application. However, we highly suggest you to re-check the information and visit the Indonesian Embassy’s website of your capital or call them directly.

    Average Living expenses in Bali

    Indonesia is considered to be really cheap to live in. This is something you will find out quickly after your arrival in Bali. Here you will see with which additional costs you have to plan during your time in Bali.

    • Food: The amount of money you will spend on food depends on your eating habits. If you eat at a local warung you will spend around 2€/2.20US$ for a proper meal with drink. But if you prefer to eat western food you will spend a lot more (at least 5€/5.35US$ but probably even more).
    • Laundry: In our accommodation you won’t have laundry facilities. So you have to bring your laundry to a laundry service somewhere around your living area. Average laundry costs are around 0.50-1€/$ for one kilogram of laundry.
    • Phone Credit: In all our accommodations you will find wifi. Therefore 2GB mobile data plus some credit for calling your friends should be enough per month. This will cost you around 5€/5.25$.
    • Scooter Rental + Petrol: Renting a scooter will cost around 42€/45$ per month. Petrol is quite cheap in Indonesia and 1 litre will be around  0.50€/$. In practice this means, that you won't need more than 4 €/$ per week for petrol unless you intend to to a bike trip around the island.
    • Trips: How much money you want to spend for trips to explore Bali is eventually up to you. You can minimize expenses if you spend a bit more time organizing as much as you can by yourself instead of using a travel agent or trip packages.
