Coral Cay Conservation Sends Teams Of Enthusiast Volunteers To Survey Coral Reefs In Cambodia, The Philippines And Tobago.

Coral Cay Conservation is an award winning not for profit volunteer based organisation that specialises in coral reef and tropical forest conservation and YOU can join our projects as a volunteer, voluntary staff member, researcher or marine /rainforest specialist.

CCC expeditions have two types of volunteers; training volunteers and staff volunteers.  Our volunteers are the heart and soul of the organisation. On expedition there will be 6 - 8 core volunteer staff out on site at any one time who ensure the smooth running of the expedition.

Depending on the expedition site, volunteer numbers range from between 10 - 40, and with expeditions starting every month there is a high degree of flexibility. Training volunteers will work alongside, and be taught by, our professionally qualified volunteer staff in the arts of diving or trekking, science and surveying. Once trained volunteers will survey reefs or rainforests, work with local communities and pass on the valuable knowledge and expedition skills they have learnt.

Your fellow volunteers may be gap-year students or company directors taking a career break; they may be teachers or retired. The one thing that everyone will have in common is enthusiasm and a desire to take an active part in the adventure of expedition life.

Every day brings new adventures and discoveries; from learning to scuba dive to studying the local environment and wildlife.  Every hour will bring unforgettable beaches, lush forests and awe-inspiring landscapes.  The breath taking land and seascapes are only part of the package because you are there to make a difference.

Project Information:

Voluntary Conservation Project On Koh Rong Island, Cambodia

The coral reefs around the islands are full of a vast array of life and the rainforests on it harbour an equally high abundance of fascinating creatures.

As well as surveying the reefs around a number of surrounding islands, there will be the opportunity to trek and explore Koh Rong's forest where you’ll be treated to some spectacular views of the coastal landscape in addition to meeting some of its inhabitants - freshwater turtles, hornbills, red squirrels and possibly macaques

Southern Leyte, Philippines Coral Reef Conservation Project

This highly successful project has already helped establish several marine reserves within the Sogod Bay, trained up sanctuary wardens, university students and government employees through our scholarship programmes and has made some significant contributions towards raising awareness about the importance of coral reefs to hundreds of people throughout the province.

Tobago Coastal Ecosystem Mapping Project

CCC have been collecting scientific data on Tobago's fragile coral reef ecosystems as well as getting involved in community outreach activities and turtle patrols on the beaches of this beautiful island !
