Beach patrols (covering up to 14 km!) are also conducted continually on a daily basis, and especially at night, in order to examine and monitor the turtles. While on patrol, you will walk together with your team and an experienced patrol leader along the beach and look out for nesting females. If you come across one, you take their measurements and data, and move the eggs to the project’s hatchery. You will also be required to carry out smaller, ongoing tasks such as maintenance work and beach cleaning.
