I have just returned home after an amazing 2 weeks volunteering at The Kosgoda Sea Turtle Conservation Project. Dudley, his family and their team were brilliant, so welcoming, friendly and helpful - from helping arrange trips during our down time to lifts to ATM and supermarket and the odd beer run. As volunteers we worked closely with them - preparing the hatchery, burying eggs, releasing turtles, feeding and caring for turtles, tank cleaning and site tidying, beach cleans, visitor tours and education. We were well looked after with 3 hearty meals a day aswell as tea and biscuits twice a day - what more could you ask. Being able to interact and get hands on with the turtles was an absolute bonus for me and the other volunteers - to see how much turtles enjoyed getting a back rub and actually doing it was incredible. Overall I had a wonderful time and would thoroughly recommend to anyone even remotely thinking about it to go and take part - you will not regret it.
