You may not be aware of the fact that Ocean Adventure Program has a non-profit charitable program to promote ocean education for students. We are excited to expand our educational program to include a kid-friendly illustrated ocean education workbook and also provide a new program and scholarships for communities that traditionally may not get the opportunity to learn to surf.

About

Ocean Adventure Program
For over 45 plus years, Ocean Adventure Programs have introduced ocean science and surfing to over 15,000 students. It is amazing to reflect on what we have accomplished over the years. Not only have our students learned how to surf safely and with confidence, but they have also learned valuable lessons about marine biology, ocean awareness, ocean safety, and ocean ecology.

We are excited to expand our educational program to include a kid-friendly illustrated ocean education workbook and provide a new programs and scholarships for communities that traditionally may not get the opportunity to learn about the ocean and learn to surf.

Development

Thanks to the generous donations over the last couple of years, Erik Nelsen and his foundation were able to develop a beautiful ocean safety guide and activity book “Safety First.” Each one of our 2022 participants received one of these books. We were able to share this very important “Ocean Safety” information with them through your donations.

This year, all our participants will go home with a beautiful storyboard poster that recaps what they learned at camp in a full illustration that will keep memories fresh all year long.
