    Discover Eco Hero Conservation in Nusa Penida, Bali!

    Are you ready to dive into marine conservation and make a tangible impact? Welcome to Eco Hero Conservation, situated amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Nusa Penida, Bali, Indonesia. Our program is dedicated to marine research and conservation, training divers to safeguard and nurture our precious marine megafauna.

    About Us: At Eco Hero Conservation, our mission is to equip divers with the skills and knowledge needed to champion marine conservation efforts. Nestled in the idyllic surroundings of Nusa Penida, Bali, our program center offers access to pristine beaches, crystalline turquoise waters, and a kaleidoscope of marine life. We envision a world where the intricate beauty of underwater ecosystems is cherished and protected for future generations.

    The Importance of Coral Reefs: Coral reefs serve as vital ecosystems, providing sanctuary for a myriad of marine species and acting as natural barriers against coastal erosion and extreme weather events. However, these invaluable ecosystems face unprecedented threats from human activities such as overfishing, pollution, and climate change. Protecting coral reefs is paramount to sustaining marine biodiversity and safeguarding the livelihoods of coastal communities.

    Our Conservation Approach: At Eco Hero Conservation, we advocate for a balanced approach to conservation that prioritizes minimal human intervention and the restoration of natural equilibrium. Our programs emphasize hands-on initiatives, including beach and reef cleanups, community outreach campaigns, and citizen science projects. Through our divemaster internships with specialized training in marine ecology, participants play an active role in data collection, coral propagation, and environmental education.

    What We Offer:

    • Comprehensive divemaster training with a focus on marine ecology specialties
    • Opportunities to contribute to ongoing marine research projects
    • Hands-on experience in data collection, coral reef monitoring, and marine species identification
    • Engagement in community-driven conservation initiatives, including beach cleanups and environmental awareness programs
    • Support for local communities through educational outreach and English language instruction

    Your Experience with Us: During your time at Eco Hero Conservation, you'll be immersed in a dynamic learning environment alongside experienced scientists and dedicated instructors. Our program provides state-of-the-art diving equipment, training materials, and certifications for divemaster and marine science specialties. Accommodation options offer panoramic views of the island's natural beauty, creating an inspiring backdrop for your conservation journey.

    Join Our Movement: Embark on a transformative journey with Eco Hero Conservation and become a steward of our oceans. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the preservation of marine ecosystems and cultivate a sustainable future for all.


    Support Us Together we can contribute to a better ocean. You can donate by Adopting a coral of a Reef star. What will you get:

    1. Monthly Report until first 3 month.
    2. Adopt Certification

    Funding We are a non profit organization. As of now there is no outside funding to support our cause. Henceforth the contribution needed to sustain operation. All of the funding goes to the diving costs, boat rent, petrol fees, marine scientist fees, ocean structure, and housing. Rest assured we are open to the cost structure in all programs. We are making sure the contribution will always be affordable for everybody who want to support this noble cause to our beautiful ocean and community.
