    On this project you have the chance to work on a nature reserve and out in the natural environment, protecting Costa Rica’s beaches. Located on the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula, the nature reserve was the first national park of Costa Rica and is home to a variety of animals. These include seabirds, including pelicans, frigate birds & laughing gulls, white-tail deer, armadillos, howler monkeys, capuchin monkeys, as well as wild cats like ocelots and jaguarundis. Around 5% of this nature reserve is open to visitors, where they can walk around the numerous trails available.

    There are 4 different areas you can get involved on this project: trail maintenance, beach conservation, research and education. Each of these areas has a vital role to play in keeping the environment clean and to also educating the local people on conservation issues and how to best take care of the precious ecosystem. You can also help with maintenance and the sustainability of the reserve.

    Location
    The nature reserve is situated on the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula, a beautiful region with an abundance of wildlife. The beach projects are situated offsite from the volunteer centre within the Nicoya Peninsua. These locations may not have reliable internet, but a phone is available in case of emergencies. Our local coordinators will check in with you by phone and in-person throughout your project. You will spend  the first 1-2 days in San Jose for orientation before your project starts.
