Join Oyster Worldwide’s Marine Conservation Project in Croatia and make your Gold DofE Residential count for the planet. Based along Croatia’s stunning Adriatic coastline, this exciting opportunity allows you to dive into real-world conservation work while exploring one of Europe’s most beautiful and biodiverse marine environments.

As a volunteer, you’ll take part in vital underwater research and conservation activities such as cleaning the seabed, collecting data on marine biodiversity, and removing harmful waste. Working alongside passionate conservationists and fellow volunteers, you’ll help protect ecosystems that are home to a variety of marine life—while gaining practical skills and unforgettable memories.

You don’t need any prior marine biology or diving experience—just a passion for the environment and a willingness to get involved. In your free time, explore charming coastal towns, relax on the beach, or hike the surrounding national parks.

Accommodation is provided, and you’ll live with other international volunteers, sharing experiences, meals, and new friendships along the way. This is more than just a residential—it’s a chance to take action on ocean conservation, build confidence, and experience the beauty of Croatia while contributing to a cleaner, healthier planet.
