If you love nature, you want to get in touch with people all over the world and you want to make a difference - you will definitly find in Grenada what you are looking for ! The Ocean Spirit team welcomes warmly volunteers ready to experience one to one environment protection. You will learn and discover about local community, environmental conditions and real constraints.
While you sleep on the beach during the nights in order to be ready when a turtle comes up to perform one of nature magic incidents you realize that this is the right place to be. And I can tell that you feel very small next to a Leatherback turtle ;) In the morning you aftre spending the night on the beach, you can help digging out old turtle nests for analysis. During the day you are free to explore the neighborhood, get in touch with local people or just relax in the beauty of Grenada island. As Ocean Spirit also tries to include young local people, you will have the task to inform them about the environment and humain impact.
One thing I also enjoyed was having diner together in the evening. Some of the participants will get prepared to spend the night at the beach the other stay at home and organise the next day. Those diners always were a place to share experiences and stories with people you will live with for a couple of weeks.
Finally, I would like to point out that Ocean Spirit turtle and environment project is a safe and well organised project which is more then worth the contribution you have to pay in money - as you will go home with an unforgettable priceless experience.
