Summer time Marine conservation programs
Looking for something to do this summer? Then why not come and join us at Oceans Unlimited in Costa Rica on one of our marine conservation programs. We are running programs throughout the months of June, July and August starting every other Monday. It’s not just about scuba diving it’s about learning to love the ocean and marine world around you and understanding how precious and amazing it is.
There is a choice of a one week or a two week program. If you are not a scuba diver already then no worries, we can incorporate your scuba diving certification into the beginning of your time before you start your marine conservation program.
What is involved in the program?
During these programs you will take part in workshops, and talks, and learn about different aspects of the ocean environment. We look at threats, species conservation and more. And most importantly, you get to scuba dive and put some of your new knowledge to use. You will get the chance to take part in surveys, and citizen science projects too. Some of our most popular segments are our humpback whale surveys and REEF surveys. Other projects include marine plastics, shark awareness and coral reef ecology.
You will take part in cleanups, look at recycling projects and what you can do as an eco aware warrior.
So, if you are looking for something exciting to do over your summer and give back at the same time, then our marine conservation programs are for you.
All programs include the marine conservation certification and scuba diving options. All programs have the option to include accommodation and meals with a local family as well. The program runs 6 days a week with the last day available to enjoy other activities in the local area or just relax. There is also an optional trip to Caño island during the program to dive with the sharks and rays.
