Why families like it

A good fit for families looking for a slower, nature-based summer camp instead of a classroom or sports-style program. Kids spend the day outdoors exploring, playing, making art, hiking, and connecting with the beach and forest environment.

Before you go

This appears to be weekly enrollment rather than drop-in. Camp runs outdoors, so kids need weather-ready clothing, a backpack, snack/lunch, and water bottle. Check current dates, availability, and enrollment requirements before booking.
