The foundation of this experience was great - working with sea turtles, living in an environmentally conscious way, and living a slower pace of live. I struggled a bit fully settling into the role due to discrepancies between the information on worldpackers, the info I was given ahead of time, and what was actually expected when I got there. The host was distant and didn’t seem all that engaged with the work we had to do, luckily the other volunteers were more than welcoming and helped show me around. I would recommend going in with no expectations to get the most out of the experience!

tendre que hablar sobre ti tambien, una persona anti social, sin motivacion y sin interes, habian 4 personas mas en ese momento se noto mucho cuando llegaste,tyra fua una voluntaria que estuvo dos meses y yo fui la personas que la capacite para que ella tomara la responsabilidad ya que estaria dos meses podria ayudarme con esto, asi que lo que estas diciendo es falso, la persona que no tenia motivacion eres tu, porque el resto todos trabajamos con una sonrrisa en la cara, menos tu, lamento que este lugar no fue para ti,,...

If you are seeking an experience to be fully immersed in the local culture and nature, then this is a great opportunity to do so. However, it is important to know that this experience is true rural living, so the accommodations are basic. For me however, that just added to the charm. Working with the turtles was amazing, and I enjoyed the projects around the house too. The activities depend on the time of the year that you are going, so look into the season ahead of time to know what to expect.

This project is at the most beautiful location you could think of. You are right by the beach and in a very secluded part of Costa Rica. This was the perfect time to go because I was able to see the whole process with the turtles. It was a very magical experience. Now the host..I feel as though this project has passed it’s prime. The photos that are shown are a couple years old when the other co-founder was still a part of the project. I believe she ran this project much better and was more organized/professional. The host now can be rude and is unsocial. Also the fee is $35/day not $10.

Thank you for sharing your point of view about the project and the coordinator, about the daily commission we are very clear when we send you the information packet, you, like all those who have come, have agreed to pay the daily commission, so I do not see the reason why he mentions it if you agree to come to the project with that rate, you are not forced to accept, the other thing is that the coordinator is very direct and especially when people try to lie to his face as he has done, you did not want to work and you simply lied to not do it and justify your fault, for this reason, knowing what you were doing, you have been told the truth up front, if you call that rude, then that's how it is, but you must be more sincere as you do it by this means and not leave without saying goodbye

He aprendido muchísimo no solo sobre las tortugas sino también sobre la cultura en el país y lo bien que se vive conectándote con la naturaleza. Me he sentido muy acogida y siempre se han preocupado por mi. A parte, ver las tortugas nacer es una experiencia increíble y más en un lugar como este que parece un paraíso.

The project is in a beautiful part of Costa Rica. You're completely immersed in nature, sound of the waves crashing as you go to sleep. Night patrols are a lot of fun and it's magical being able to watch turtles Lay their eggs... However, myself and 3 other volunteers all had to leave early because of the host. He is unsocial, does not care about the volunteers, he largely disappears for most of the day with zero guidance on what needs to be done. does not take kindly to suggestions for improvement and is often very rude. He would often forget it's his turn to cook there would be no meal.
