2020 Conrad Schools of Science Sea Turtle Conservation Expedition
Costa Rica Sea Turtle Conservation: Caribbean Coast
You are in store for a wonderful trip! The Sea Turtle Conservation Program will bring you to a stretch of isolated coastline along the Caribbean coast of the country where various species of sea turtles nest throughout the year. As human populations encroach on more and more on natural habitats, the work you will preform on this program will be crucial to insuring the longevity of these remarkable species. Oh, you also get to relax on the beach, check out an active volcano and spend a full day white water rafting along one of the country’s best rivers. Pura vida!!

The Itinerary
We do everything possible to abide by itineraries as originally planned, but decades of experience teaches that we must be flexible in our planning. Changes to a trip’s schedule are uncommon, but Walking Tree reserves the right to make adjustments to programming in the best interest of the group.

With a previous outfitter [I worked with], the experience was more “touring” and no hands-on contributions and work. Walking Tree surrounds the travelers with amazing professionals who are dedicated to their sciences, travels, and countries. Travelers’ experiences are first-hand, authentic and memorable!
