Beach Camp


After 2 wildly successful Summers, Knockaround Beach Camp is back and better than ever, now with 3 two-week sessions available. Located just next to the Scripps Institute of Oceanography (SIO), our Beach Camp will take the Knockaround philosophy and apply it to the beach. Campers will be taught the basics of marine biology, receive surf lessons, hike to tide pools, build san civilizations, and play on the beach and in the ocean.  
  

Along with our Knockaround Counselors, we will have 2 surf instructors who are certified lifeguards and they will be present during all water time and throughout each day. We will also adhere to a ratio of three children to every one adult when the campers are in the water.

This camp is for ages 8-14 and will run from 9am to 4pm. Before Camp Care will be available from 8am-9am at a cost of $30 per two week session. After Camp Care is also available until 5pm and also costs $30 per session. Below is an example schedule of the first week. Besides the first day of camp which is on campus, the entire rest of the session is on the beach. The Sumner Auditorium is used as an indoor facility. We have a ton of new and exciting activities each week and wrap up each session with a great party.
