Program Details

Description

On this marine biology excursion, live like a scientist while exploring the Osa Peninsula and other hidden gems of Costa Rica! Surrounded by beaches, mangroves and estuaries, this region creates unique habitats for both permanent and migratory species. Students will join researchers working on current sea turtle, dolphin, and whale conservation projects and collect data to help with rehabilitation and rescue efforts. Since mangroves play an essential role in coastal ecosystems and the preservation of these species, students will also participate in the Mangrove Reforestation Project to improve water quality and support a healthy habitat. To wrap up your program, enjoy zip lining, white water rafting, sea kayaking or surfing in the beautiful warm waters of this spectacular country!
