Volunteer With Marine Conservation in the Great Barrier Reef
The Great Barrier Reef, located just off the coast of Queensland, Australia is considered to be one of the most diverse and spectacular marine features in the world. However, it is also under immense threat. Climate change is threatening the future of the reef, and all the species that call it home. Yet, there is still a lot that humans can do to protect this pristine underwater environment. This volunteer opportunity brings travelers to Cairns in the north of Queensland. Once there, volunteers begin their marine conservation project where they will collect data on the reef, gather marine debris and help rehabilitate sea turtles. All these efforts contribute to research on the Great Barrier Reef, as well as help to protect Earth’s great wonders. Weekends are free to enjoy the breathtaking scenery, cultural diversity, unique wildlife and adventure sports the region is famous for. There will be opportunities to dive, surf, kayak, swim and snorkel. Adrenaline junkies can enjoy bungee jumping, gorge swinging, whitewater rafting and parasailing.
This is a 2-week or 3-week trip that costs $2,075 for two weeks. The trip is led by IVHQ, a volunteer travel company with 338 projects in 50 countries, rated #1 Volunteer Travel Company by Go Overseas 7 years in a row. It is a cost-effective option with some programs as low as $20 per day with accommodation and meals included. They are a Certified B Corporation, 100% carbon neutral and every project aligns with a UN Sustainable Development Goal.
