Om programmet

This volunteer program gives you the opportunity to discover the wonders of the Portuguese coastline and work on the protection of the marine ecosystem of the Atlantic Ocean. 

In collaboration with a diving school which has a special emphasis on the local environmental protection, you can:

  • Take internationally recognized Diving certifications; 
  • Explore the underwater world of the Portuguese coastline; 
  • Learn about the marine ecosystem and how to protect it;
  • Collect trash from the bottom of the Ocean to recycle it;
  • Work with the local community - educate them about environmental issues, conservation, and protection of biodiversity and marine resources.

You will always be supervised by an experienced dive instructor and will receive comprehensive training on the marine conservation subject. 

Any person can participate, from beginners (starting with the Open Water Dive Certification) or more experienced divers, as the program is adapted to your diving experience. Observe fish of all colors, touch weird seaweeds, explore caves, discover boat wrecks and much more. 

You will discover a Portuguese treasure unknown to many and loved by those who are brave enough to take this challenge.

It's not that I was disappointed by the cats, it was just a shock, and also, at points of the sanctuary I feel like I wasn't apart of it massively, there wasn't ...

Although the work is really meaningful, there’s not much to do. For example I only had to help with ...
