Yoga Lessons

Led by a local professional yoga instructor, our yoga sessions last approximately 60 to 90 minutes and cater to all levels, ranging from beginners to advanced.

Volunteering

During your time at the camp, you will participate in volunteer projects at the camp for approximately 2-3 hours on Tuesday and Friday, aiming to conserve the local natural resources. Project work varies with seasons and weather conditions. Volunteering sessions can be beach conservation, turtle conservation, kids & community work, bionics recycling, and/or forest conservation.

Collaborating with the 'Santa Teresa Lifeguards,' we contribute to the upkeep of Santa Teresa, Playa Hermosa and Playa Carmen beaches. Beyond their stunning beauty, these beaches require maintenance to ensure safety and preserve the environment. Our efforts involve promoting beach safety and etiquette through signage, presentations and visitor interactions. Additionally, we organize clean-ups with a focus on recycling.

Exploring

Our weekly nature hikes aim to explore the natural wonders of the Nicoya Peninsula. Delve into the lush tropical forest during our Jungle River Trek, uncovering diverse flora with medicinal applications and gaining insights intricate ecosystem. We also enjoy a beach hikes to exposed rock pools during low tide, revealing a vibrant array of sea life.

Free Time

During the weekends, there are a lot of opportunities to explore the area and try out different activities such as white water rafting, horse riding, surfing, kayaking, snorkeling, whale watching, a jungle canopy tour etc. There is always something to do and if it all sounds too active, you can just enjoy the beach or pool.

Please note: Travel on the weekends, or any of the extra activities is at your own expense and risk. We cannot be responsible but, if anything happens, we will of course be there to assist. Please ensure that you have adequate medical insurance before you carry out any activity.

What Makes a Good Volunteer?

Volunteers need to be flexible and keep an open mind concerning their placements as situations can arise beyond our control which could require you to be placed at a different project than the one you have initially chosen. We will of course always do our utmost to fulfill your initial wishes but do remember that where you are going is quite different from where you are coming and as such one should be prepared for things not always going according to plan.

Volunteering and intercultural travel share a common trait: the more you put into it, the more you get out of it. This program is designed for proactive individuals and groups that are prepared to adapt to the local environment and its current needs. Naturally, the scheduling and activities of our program are subject to change. Alterations in activities are mainly due to changes in local conditions, which we believe is part of what makes overseas programs the interesting adventure and incredible learning experience that they are.

How Long Should I Volunteer?

Our projects range from 1 week up to approx. 30 weeks. Projects have a specified minimum stay, then it’s up to you how long you can commit. In our experience the longer you stay the more you will gain, as your understanding of the project broadens and you take on more responsibilities.
