Volpro Ocean & Turtle Adventure

Join our Turtle Conservation & Coastal Adventure program and experience the beauty of Indonesia’s coastline while making a positive impact. Volunteers can participate in turtle conservation activities such as turtle releases and night patrols, support marine conservation through coral reef restoration, and help with coastal care by planting mangroves and pandanus trees as well as joining beach clean-ups. The program also includes exciting water activities such as surfing, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, snorkeling, and banana boat rides. Volunteers can contribute to the local community by teaching English to staff members and students in local schools, creating meaningful cultural exchange opportunities. To enrich the experience, the program features beach yoga, beach art activities, and opportunities to connect with local culture and community life. Volunteers may also explore nearby waterfalls during their free time or visit Aher Hill for paragliding and breathtaking coastal views.

Participants are welcomed as part of the team, not just as visitors. During their stay, they will be supported, guided, and treated with respect in a calm and friendly environment. We believe in learning by doing, asking questions, sharing ideas, and growing together through real conservation work.

Our aim is simple: to create a safe and meaningful space where participants feel comfortable, valued, and connected to the community, while gaining hands-on experience, new skills, and memories that truly matter.

I truly entered this program with an open heart and excitement. I had to leave the program early due to safety violations and negligence from the community. From not receiving breakfast the first 5 days, not receiving a towel the first 7 days, given a moldy infested accommodation (I paid extra for a private room) when there were other rooms available with no mold, and safety violations by posting my exact locations, this experience was not for me. When I decided to leave, they cut my power and wifi off to try to prevent me from arranging my travel departure. Very very sad that it ended this way.

Before joining, volunteers are informed that activities will be documented according to their chosen shifts and tasks, as shown on our Instagram. Electricity and Wi-Fi outages at the conservation area were technical issues, not intentional actions to prevent departure. We respect different perspectives but disagree with assumptions presented as facts. Volpro has hosted many volunteers, and their reviews offer a broader picture of their experiences with our programs.

I had an amazing time at Pangumbahan conservation!! Everyone is so welcoming and I made many new friends. I really felt like part of the team, and I loved experiencing local life in Ujung Genteng. I saw many turtles during my time here; mother turtles laying eggs and also many baby the community releases! Lydia takes very good care of the volunteers, she is really kind. I can definitely recommend this volunteer experience if you want to contribute to sea the community conservation!

I had the absolute best time at the community! The team welcome you with the biggest smiles from the minute you arrive. Lydia, the coordinator at the community is very caring, helpful and positive. She made the experience unforgettable! When you volunteer here you become part of the family, immersed in local life and Indonesian culture. You learn a lot about turtles and the huge efforts and care the team take with conservation of turtles. It was beautiful to witness mother the community lay eggs, baby turtles hatching and the release of baby turtles into the community. I was very lucky!

I had an amazing experience at Pantai Konservasi Penyu Pangumbahan. The task I did was pretty much the same as the description. I could witness the baby turtles hatching, the mother the community laying eggs, and baby the community release. I was also able to meet locals and talk to them, and learn a lot about their culture and the language. However, some of the facilities were a little basic, such as the bathroom. I highly recommend this host if you love sea turtles and the sea!

I had an incredible experience volunteering here. From the beginning, I was welcomed with so much kindness and affection, and I truly felt like part of the family. the community conservation work was beautiful, and releasing baby turtles into the community was unforgettable. At times, there were very few volunteers, which could feel a little lonely and boring. I also sometimes had to ask to take part in certain activities. Still, the warmth of the team and the amazing moments I experienced made this a truly memorable adventure.
