ARCHELON is a society which works closely with state agencies, institutions, fishermen and local people in order to protect the declining population of caretta caretta turtles in Greece. Every year, young volunteers from all over the world come to help on the nesting beaches and in the Rescue Center. Everyone can join the team. See the website to learn more about details.

They must speak English as the project is in the English language. It is a big advantage if the applicants are skillful or talented and can participate in the production of souvenirs which are sold to tourists. The recommended period of participation on the project is 6 weeks. Applicants who are interested in the job in the Rescue Center must be over 18 years of age.

Beach Patrols work by day and night to minimize the impact of tourism on the nesting activity, e.g. They explain to beach visitors why their parasols can‘t be stood up freely wherever they want. Early in the morning, they look for new turtle nests, label them and cover them with protective baskets. At night, after the turtles finish laying their eggs, the Beach Patrols tag the animals to record their migration habits.
