Come join us for our Tides Ocean Adventure Summer Camps!
Join us this summer, across 2 of our locations, for an amazing summer camp/beach experience! Tides Ocean Adventure Summer Camp is a unique blend of ocean sports and beach play with some of our very own Tides Marine Biology curriculum mixed in. Campers will have the opportunity to surf, stand-up paddle, bodyboard, build sandcastles, do crafts, play beach games, make new friends and more! We’ll take a break in the middle of the day for a marine biology lesson provided by our awesome summer camp staff, and continue our adventure with guided tide pool and/or beach exploration. (Actual water activities and tide pooling vary by beach location- please see below for specific location details).
We will provide all the gear needed for non-stop fun: soft-top surfboards, SUPs (stand up paddle boards), bodyboards, frisbees, balls, shovels, craft items, easy-ups for shade, etc...(please feel free to bring your own boards!). Ages 6-14 are welcome!
