Shark Conservation Volunteering in Fiji - Projects Abroad

Join a field-based marine conservation project in Pacific Harbour, Fiji, working alongside scientists and dive partners to collect data on sharks and other marine life. Volunteers take part in survey dives, bi-monthly shark dives, mangrove reforestation, community outreach and education, data entry and workshops.

The project includes full training: beginners complete the PADI Open Water course during the first two weeks, while experienced divers may complete Advanced or Rescue courses. The placement is supervised by qualified marine biologists and local professionals and runs year-round with a minimum two-week stay.

Projects Abroad provides accommodation, three meals daily, airport pick-up, transport to placements, diving equipment rental, access to resources and ongoing in-country support. Flights, visa fees and travel/medical insurance are not included.

The experience is aimed at volunteers with an interest in marine biology, conservation or outdoor fieldwork and can strengthen CVs and future applications in conservation and related fields.
