Caretta Research Project
Caretta Research Project provides a once in a lifetime opportunity for people to experience the ancient rituals of sea turtle nesting and hatching. Volunteers spend one week (Sat-Sat) in the heart of the Wassaw National Wildlife Refuge (GA), living right alongside Sea Turtle Biologists and being involved in every facet of the project. While collecting data and protecting nests, volunteers may experience the wonder of seeing an adult turtle emerging from the ocean to lay her eggs or the joy of witnessing hatchlings "boiling" up from the sand and scurrying down the beach to the ocean. It's truly an experience of a lifetime and we hope you decide to join us.
