Work

Based on the time of the year the volunteers will be working during the day or
at night in the months of August and September from 20:00 to 08:00.
Depending on the number of turtles that come ashore, two teams might be
formed among the volunteers. In this way, each group will be taking turns,
working one night, and taking the next night off for recovery.
In addition, the weekends are also spared for resting. Some of the activities to
be performed are:
1.Finding adult turtles and collecting their eggs.
2.Moving the eggs to a protected place called Vivero.
3.Releasing newborn baby turtles into the sea.
4.Patrolling the beaches at night.
5.Making some reconstruction in the most important turtle camps of the
region.
Please consider that the schedule is subject to change depending on the
weather conditions and the condition of the sea turtles and it is possible to
work with crocodiles in case there is no work with turtles, this can happen
mostly in the months of January and February.
The coordinator or the camp leader will be informing you regarding your work
schedule.

Accomodation and food

The accommodation is located about 15 minutes from the nearest beach. Volunteers will stay in shared rooms with bunk beds, alongside other participants. The rooms are equipped with air conditioning. There is a common area for volunteers to use, as well as tennis courts available on site. Three meals per day will be provided throughout the camp.

Location and leisure

LOCATION
Rincon de Guayabitos, also known as Guayabitos, is a beach town located in the
astonishing Sierra Madre Occidental, in the state of Nayarit and bathed by the waters
of the Pacific Ocean. It is a popular tourist destination due to its proximity to the cities
of Tepic, Guadalajara and Puerto Valarta.
LASURE TIME
Riviera Nayarit is emerging as one of the most attractive and magic destinations of
Mexico. The area extends approximately 300 kilometers along the coast, integrated
by mountainous jungle and facing coastal islands. For those seeking a more rural
and rustic experience with magic beach towns in Mexico, the Riviera has a massive
open space for everyone along the Nayarit coast.

Project hosted by

Vive Mexico has been organizing this workcamp regularly in Rincon de
Guayabitos, Nayarit since 2014. The main achievement of the project is to
protect the sea turtles with the help of volunteers who will be cooperating with
a team of biologists. Up to now, the project has been quite successful and has
reached extraordinary results. Participating in sea turtle conservation is a great
opportunity to discover the rather charming life of sea turtles.
