Description

Join us for a fun-filled week of water sports! Kids will learn about kayaking & Stand-Up Paddling, water safety, and how to paddle in calm water conditions. Each day, we will take advantage of the calm conditions offered in the mornings to learn various paddling skills and tour the area. Our afternoons will be spent at the Encinal Swim Center playing games, arts and crafts activities, and more! This will surely be a memorable week and the beginning of the kids' paddling adventures in and around the Bay. All participant families will also receive a free 1-hour kayak or SUP rental, with the idea of the kids sharing their summer camp experience with their families.

*All Joe Stack’s Camps On-The-Water have a minimum registration count. If the camps do NOT meet the minimum registration count, you will be enrolled in the ARPD equivalent camp and refunded or charged the difference in price.*

Dive into the wonders of nature with our On-and-Underwater Eco Camp! This camp offers an exciting mix of water sports and environmental education, perfect for young adventurers. In the mornings, campers will paddleboard or kayak through the serene waters of the bay, discovering its beauty and learning about its diverse ecosystems. The afternoons are dedicated to exploring the underwater world further through engaging lessons and hands-on activities. Campers will dive into the fascinating aquatic life of the bay, learning about marine species and their habitats. With fun pool activities designed to reinforce their knowledge, they’ll leave with a deeper understanding and appreciation for the delicate balance of our water ecosystems.
