It was a really nice experiance to spend time with this project. The tasks were agreed ahead of the week and they were alway interesting especially as they have educational programms incuded which was really interesting as well as the hands on tasks we had to do. I would prefer to stay from longer to experiance a wider variety of the tasks as I could only stay for 10 days I felt like I was missing some really interesting programs or tasks. Alba and Manuel were helpfull if needed and they were super chill and funny to be around and very welcoming.

This was my first Worldpacker experience, and I couldn't be happier about choosing this one! Manuel is a ray of sunshine and a wonderful cook. Alba is amazing, and shes a great leader. I couldn't have asked for better hosts. The place itself is a bit secluded and very remote, but it's got its charm. I met wonderful people along the way as well. We got to see sea turtles up close! It was so cool. The beach is very nice, and the hours are very reasonable. Personally, I had a hard time dealing with the heat and humidity, but that's just me. Overall, I'd definitely recommend.

I spontaneously volunteered for the Naturaviva project, founded by Alba and Manuel, two former acotpor members.
The work was super exciting and varied, and the people there were so friendly—I already miss it!

Volunteering at ACOTPRO was truly amazing and special experience, the place itself is in a very special location and helping with the turtles is nice, also the other volunteers and locals were all amazing people and it was fun socializing, and connecting with the nature (lots of animals around camp). Camp needs some maintenance, and the room doesn't have a floor what is kinda a problem but overall it's is a really good place and would recommend this volunteering experience to everyone.

Beautiful place in nature where you can meet new people and get in touch with local culture. I only wish host was more involved( you wont get to do stuff if you dont ask them few times.) All tasks were easy and a lot of free days.

I spent 2 amazing weeks at ACOTPRO camp helping with the turtle project! Alba and Manuel were so welcome and passionate, always happy to explain each step of the turtles' lifecycle. Most members spoke Spanish, which was great for practice and learning local life. The work was easy and meaningful – night patrols, beach/area cleaning, turtle releases, nests exhumation. The camp between jungle and beach was peaceful with great meals and comfy beds. No WiFi and limited electricity helped connect with nature, and other volunteers! Thank you ACOTPRO for this unforgettable experience! Pura vida ☀️

From the very first moment I arrived, Manuel and Alba were incredibly welcoming and always ready to help with anything I needed. The work itself is very light, with plenty of free time, but the activities dedicated to the sea turtles are truly amazing — you get the chance to learn so much about them.
I genuinely recommend this program to anyone looking for a meaningful and relaxed volunteer experience. is a great place to connect with nature, meet wonderful people, and enjoy a really positive atmosphere. AcotPro quickly starts to feel like a second family and a second home. Pura Vida!

I had an amazing time at ACOTPRO. The hosts Manuel and Alba have been very welcoming, kind and made sure all volunteers were comfortable. Helping the sea turtles hatch and releasing them into the ocean was a truly magical experience. I learned a lot in my time there and would definately recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning, environmental impact and a chill lifestyle.
