Conservation Internships
Ever thought about pursuing a career in marine conservation or just want to learn more about our oceans and what you can do to help protect them? Then come and join our team for a Conservation Internship and get an insight into all areas of our work!
Internships start on the first of each month and are designed to allow participants to learn more about the marine environment, with a key focus on marine conservation. You will learn more about the biology of the various animals that we work with, the threats they face, conservation efforts locally and globally, as well as having the opportunity to gain practical experience in a wide variety of activities.
We have 1 week, 2 week, 3 week and 4 week options available. They are also available as an add-on to Scuba Junkie’s 4 week Divemaster course, effectively creating an Eco-Divemaster course. Please get in touch below for up-to-date rates.
