Volunteers are needed to help protect the endangered sea turtles of Indonesia. You’ll be wisked away by boat to an island 45 minutes from mainland bali. Depending on the time of year, you’ll be collecting turtle population statistics, identifying turtle species, collecting eggs, monitoring nests or releases hatch lings into the sea.
Life on the island is authentic with the beach literally on your doorstep however volunteers must be prepared for a more basic standard of living with much less entertainment and attractions than on the main land.
Volunteers will also assist the local neighborhood schools with English teaching, environmental education and sports. There are few native English speaking locals so having the opportunity to practice English speaking is very helpful to the community.
Basic Schedule
*Breakfast, lunch & dinner included daily weekdays (2 meals p/day on weekends)
Monday – Welcome new arrivals, briefing and introduction, feeding, cleaning tanks collecting seaweed
Tuesday – Cleaning, feeding the turtles and collecting seaweed, teaching at the local school
Wednesday – Cleaning, feeding the turtles, preparing lessons, teaching at the local school
Thursday – Cleaning, feeding, preparing lessons, visit to Cystal Bay, Bonfire on the beach
Friday – Turtle release (depending on time of year), cleaning up the beach, farewell dinner
Saturday – Program finishes after breakfast
Accommodation
Volunteers stay in a dedicated volunteer house located in the village where you will get to experience the local way of living. Located only 5 minutes from the harbour, you’ll get to interact with local people as well as enjoy the company of other like minded volunteers.
Bedrooms are shared (single gender) with hot showers and western toilets. Wifi is included however the speed is not very fast. You can biuy a local Sim card for very cheap on the island at various local shops.
Meals
3 traditional Balinese meals are provided on weekdays and 2 meals on weekends (breakfast and dinner). Indonesian food is tasty and diverse and volunteers can expect dishes included nasi goreng (fried rice and vegetables), mie goreng (fried noodles and vegetables), or gado gado (mixed vegetables with a satay sauce). For those who do not eat meat, Indonesian cooking uses a lot of tofu and tempeh (soy beans).
Breakfasts are varied and include pancakes, fresh fruit, toast etc. Tea, coffee will be available at the volunteer house. Purified water is available in the volunteer house. We do not recommend that you drink the tap water. If volunteers wish to eat out in Ubud, there are a large numbers of restaurants and local warungs (restaurants) to suit all tastes and budgets. There is also a western café in the village for fresh fruit juices, fresh coconuts and sweet treats. If you have any special dietary requirements, please let us know when you apply so we can make arrangements for you.
