The Experience
7 daysliving and working in Tramuntana mountain range, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, on good days we will take to the open sea to study turtles and dolphins, help improve the local artisanal fishery targeting dolphinfish, and collect data on the impacts of marine litter such as ghost gear. On bad sea days, we will proceed with data entry tasks as well as restoring on old traditional house in the mountains, which will serve as our base camp

One of the best experiences of my life! The perfect opportunity to connect with nature, meet truly amazing people, and have the opportunity for hands on learning about marine conservation (maybe even swim with sea turtles). Ric is awesome, and I feel lucky to have had the privilege of learning from him. (Clara and Gori too- wish we had more time!) The tasks are simple, fun, and vary each day depending on need and schedule. Everyday we shared delicious cooked meals (props to Ric and Lena), in the most beautiful environment among the mountains to the sound of sheep. Highly recommend!

Regan, you the type of volunteer every host dreams of! Eager, full of energy and keen to learn. It was an absolute pleasure to have you stay with us and hope that maybe in the not so far off future our paths cross again.
Warm hugs from everyone here at Alnitak <3
