Volunteer and join one of our conservation expeditions.
Our 25 day and 50 day programs provide you with a unique opportunity to spend time in the most biodiverse marine conservation area in the world. Raja Ampat is renowned as the epicentre of biodiversity and Sea Sanctuaries Trust has a total of 70,000ha 100% conservation area in the heart of Raja Ampat at the entrance to the Dampier Straights.
We are looking for qualified scuba divers to volunteer to join our project and assist in collecting vital baseline data and monitoring changes in fish and coral populations within our conservation areas and, to work in our social development programs with the local communities. Volunteers will spend time on the liveaboard dive boat Hang Tuah as well as in a basic homestay in one of the villages working with the local community, including teaching English and undertaking fish catch surveys.
Volunteers can expect to undertake at least 30 dives + manta tows during their stay. Conditions are basic and the area remote so volunteers need to be patient and tolerant as well as resourceful.
