Joining ORP as a sea turtle volunteer is a great way to play your part in the conservation of these amazing but threatened animals, while also having the experience of a lifetime! It is hard but very rewarding work – and an experience you will never forget. For a more leisurely experience, join the ORP & Secret Paradise Sea Turtle Conservation Snorkelling Cruise. We also offer a veterinary training programme for veterinary surgeons working with sea turtles across the world.
