This
project is located right on the beach at Kosgoda,
close to the accommodation and all local amities
such as shops, banks and cafes.
Based
in 2 locations volunteers, work at the turtle
hatchery itself where turtles are bred and re-introduced
to the sea at the right time. The other location
on the beach is a natural breeding centre where
staff monitor the turtles coming ashore at night,
then mark the area where they have laid eggs.
The staff monitor the beaches to ensure the turtles
can continue without any human disturbance. Volunteers
can work doing night shifts on the beach on turtle
watch with the staff and also work in the hatchery
itself helping maintain the breeding tanks, feeding,
releasing and also advising the visiting tourists
of what the operation is all about.
Full
training and information is given on induction
but it its advisable to research turtles before
you travel to give you an advantage.
