“We educate and instruct children to enjoy the beach and ocean responsibly.”
Welcome to Orange County’s #1 choice in summer youth programs. Since 1977 and 1986, Ocean Adventure Programs and Erik Nelsen Surf Camps have instilled safety, education, integrity and structure into their curriculum. This experience shines bright through from their friendly and professional staff and organized program layouts. Come join one or more of our four outstanding programs.
Girls and boys will learn basic ocean awareness skills and gain confidence in and around the ocean while being educated and participating in many of our ocean themed camps. With safety as our priority and the watchful eyes of our experienced staff, these young ocean campers will be introduced to ocean safety, ocean awareness, marine biology and respect, in and around the ocean while participating in surfing, oceanography and beach sports!
Choose from one or more of our four themed youth programs this spring and summer. Our staff is First Aid and CPR certified and we also provide excellent instructor to student ratios. We look forward to seeing you soon. Enjoy the website and let us know if you have any questions.
