Introduction

This expedition takes its volunteers to Kenya in East Africa to combine marine, primate and forest research, and become involved in local community development projects, including teaching English and sustainable tourism programmes. Living and working in the beautiful Shimoni Archipelago, off the coast of the Indian Ocean on the border with Tanzania, volunteers can experience the amazing white sand beaches and biodiversity of the area. You will conduct humpback whale and dolphin research from a surface vessel, snorkel to observe turtles, and help vital wildlife conservation with Angolan Black and White Colobus monkeys in the coastal forest. Volunteers will also have the opportunity to journey in-land to the heart of East Africa’s savannas, working alongside rural communities to develop livelihood alternatives to wildlife poaching and so protect Kenya’s big game. This expedition is run in partnership with the world renowned Kenyan Wildlife Service and other local partners.
