Calling all curious minds! Come join us for a week-long day camp of fun and exploration at the beach. At Ocean Defenders camp, campers will spend their week outdoors by the shoreline learning about different ocean animals, how they survive in the ocean and the ways that we can help protect them. This camp will help foster curiosity, creative thinking, and a lifelong connection with our oceans!
The Ocean Defenders camp uses fun, hands-on games and activities to teach children about current issues impacting our oceans and how we can help.
Exciting activities may include:
