Make waves with your Gold DofE Residential by joining Oyster Worldwide’s Marine Conservation Volunteer Program in Greece. Based on the stunning island of Alonissos, you’ll work alongside marine biologists in Europe’s largest marine protected area to safeguard endangered species, including the Mediterranean monk seal.

Dive into adventure—literally—as you gain your PADI diving certification in your first week, then put your skills to use on underwater clean-ups, marine biodiversity monitoring, and habitat preservation efforts. You’ll also contribute to environmental education campaigns that inspire local communities to protect their marine ecosystems.

No previous diving experience? No problem. You’ll be trained and supported throughout, making this a perfect opportunity for beginners and marine lovers alike.

Accommodation is included, along with daily breakfast and one main meal per day. Enjoy your free time exploring beaches, hiking coastal trails, and soaking in authentic Greek island life.

Not only will you gain practical conservation skills and lifelong memories, but you’ll also be making a real impact on ocean health and wildlife protection. This is your chance to turn passion into purpose—join us in Greece and help protect the sea that sustains us all.
