Volunteering

Costa Rica is an exciting tourist destination with great beaches, rain forests, rivers and adventure. It’s also a developing nation that still has its share of poverty and still appreciates the art of “giving back”. “Voluntourism” is a term that seems tailor made for Costa Rica. Help out, and have a vacation at the same time!

The range of available projects is vast, but the most common causes that bring volunteers to Costa Rica are teaching English, turtle nesting projects, youth work (helping kids from poor communities), organic farming and environmental protection work (national parks and rainforests).
