Enrichment Programs

Set sail after school in our fun and engaging Basic Sailing program. Designed for beginner sailors, or those looking to have fun sailing our 8-foot Sabots, this is the perfect opportunity to build confidence and independence out on the water. Campers will learn the basics on land, while most of the learning will happen sailing on Mission Bay. After completing Basic Sailing campers are eligible to participate in Adventure Sailing.

Campers will further develop their sailing skills through hands-on coaching and on-the-water practice on the 14-foot RS Quest. Whether it's the first time sailing Quests, or campers want to get more practice and experience sailing these fun boats, this activity is a great way to spend the afternoons after school while having fun on the water.

Join us Saturday mornings on Mission Bay for an unforgettable wakeboarding experience. Whether you're just getting started or looking to level up your skills, these sessions are your chance to ride behind our world-class Nautique wakeboarding boats. Campers will get the chance to push their limits while learning new tricks. While this session is open to all skill levels, campers who have mastered getting up and riding around the bay previously will get the most out of these sessions.

PREREQUISITE: Must be 8 years or older.

Start your mornings on Mission Bay by joining our wakeboarding crew as a Leader-in-Training (LIT)! LITs will ride along in our wakeboarding boats, gaining a behind-the-scenes look at how our programs run. As an observer, you'll pick up tips from our experienced instructors, learn how to coach wakeboarders, and develop leadership skills you can use both on and off the water.

PREREQUISITE: Must have previously attended LIT Training.

Whether you're ready to catch your first wave or become an even better surfer, spend Saturday mornings surfing in Mission Beach. Our awesome surf instructors will bring the fun and excitement while pushing campers into waves or helping campers learn to read which waves to catch. This session will help campers build confidence and improve their skills while having fun in a safe and encouraging environment.

Want to try surfing without committing to a longer session? Join us for an Introduction to Surfing activity. Campers will begin with practicing popups on land before heading across the street to surf the fun waves of Mission Beach.

Spend the morning having fun doing one of our most popular camp activities - tubing and kneeboarding. Campers will be able to experience the same level of fun they have at summer camp this fall in a single-session tubing and kneeboarding activity. Prerequisite: Must be at least 8 years old.

PREREQUISITE: Must be 8 years or older.

Campers will kick the morning off with a hands-on STEM activity that sparks creativity and gets brains buzzing. Then they will hit the water for some of our all-time favorite stand up paddleboard games like Hungry Hungry Hippos and SUP Dog, where balance and teamwork rule the bay. The morning will be full of learning, laughter, and unforgettable water fun!

Need a break for date night or just some time to yourself? Drop the kids off for an evening of discovery and fun! Kids will dive into hands-on marine science activities that spark curiosity about the ocean, refuel with pizza, and wind down the night with a family-friendly movie. It’s education, dinner, and entertainment—wrapped into one worry-free night for parents and a memorable adventure for kids.

Get ready for a full day of hands-on fun, learning, and adventure! In the morning, campers will dive into awesome marine science and STEM activities that spark curiousity and creativity. After lunch, the excitement continues as they learn the basis of sailing and cruise around the bay on our fun Hobie Cat sailboats. It's the perfect way to spend a San Diego Unified non-instructional day!
