HOW DO WE GIVE BACK?
BEACH CLEAN UP:
As part of the ‘Dive Into Love’ Retreat at Siren Sanctuary, we’ll unite for a beach clean-up mission to collect trash along the otherwise pristine coastline. This hands-on effort is a way to give back to the ocean that inspires us, helping protect marine life and maintain the natural beauty of the area. By working together, we’ll make a tangible difference for the local environment, fostering a deeper connection to the ocean and reinforcing our shared commitment to conservation and sustainability.
ANIMAL RESCUE CENTER:
At each retreat, we visit and donate to the local wildlife rescue center, a vital organization that has rescued 500–700 animals annually since 2008, with over 40% successfully returned to their natural habitat. As animal lovers and environmentalists, this is a meaningful way to support impactful, local conservation work. During our visit, you’ll learn about indigenous wildlife and have the chance to meet animals currently in rehabilitation, deepening your connection to the region and its incredible biodiversity.
