BAYWATCH 2 : SHARING NATURE
LE CROTOY, FRANCIA
Attività principali
Join us on the coast to help protect the dunes, beaches, and the National Nature Reserve! Your job will be to inform visitors about how to take care of these areas, especially during the nesting season of little plovers, to protect these fragile birds and their habitats.
Volunteers will prepare and run information stands, including at the Baie Sonore festival, both before and during the event. You will also lead fun activities and educational walks for holidaymakers at local campsites. These actions will help share knowledge, encourage people to respect nature, and raise awareness about fragile coastal ecosystems.
This project is a full experience in environmental education. You will learn how tourism affects natural areas and why protecting biodiversity is important. You will play an important role: your work will directly help visitors understand and care for this special natural area with dunes, beaches, and protected zones.
Come discover a unique environment and help protect it while learning skills in animation and environmental education!

Dove alloggerai
You will stay in a tent at the Rue campsite. There will be a large communal tent for meals and gathering, with a space to stay dry if it rains. Toilets and showers are available at the campsite.
Living together is an important part of the experience: everyone helps with daily tasks and prepares meals together. A budget will be used to buy food, trying to focus on fresh, local, and seasonal products for healthy and balanced meals.
Scopri LE CROTOY
The project is in the Baie de Somme, a beautiful area known for its rich biodiversity and varied landscapes: dunes, salt marshes, wetlands, and mudflats. The Bay is a Grand Site of France and attracts many visitors, making public awareness important.
In addition to beach and dune work, volunteers can visit famous local sites like the Samara archaeological park or World War I battlefields. In summer, there are local events, markets, and festivals to enjoy.
The Marquenterre Park is a major natural reserve for migratory birds and wetlands. Your project will help protect biodiversity and teach visitors how to care for fragile ecosystems.
