Mexico - Sea Turtle Conservation and Surfing 101

Join GoEco on the beautiful beach of Puerto Escondido, Mexico to conserve the local sea turtle population! Volunteers will help with the conservation of endemic species, such as turtles and reptiles of Oaxaca who are vulnerable and threatened by tourism, illegal hunting, climate change and pollution of beaches and the sea. Volunteers go on night patrols, monitor nests, mark eggs and assist with releases when possible. In addition to wildlife conservation tasks, volunteers will enjoy two surfing lessons each week and get to explore more of Mexico during free time on weekends.
