Join Ocean Adventure Program for a “Whale of an Adventure”!

With nearly 50 years of experience, our amazing staff makes learning about the ocean fun, safe, and hands-on.

Mornings: Campers explore Little Corona Beach, investigating tide pools, using personal take-home field guides, observing whales and dolphins, learning ocean safety, and swimming under the supervision of our CPR and First Aid–certified teachers and counselors. We also take beach field trips to Big Corona and China Cove.

Travel: Counselors safely walk campers from Little Corona to the Corona del Mar Community Youth Center (CYC), a short 15-minute walk.

Afternoons: At CYC, campers dive into hands-on ocean science activities, including dissecting creatures such as sharks and starfish, examining plankton under microscopes, testing density, watching chemical reactions, growing crystals, making fish prints, creating ocean-themed arts and crafts, and conducting interactive experiments.

We maintain a 4:1 student-to-teacher ratio, ensuring personalized attention and plenty of opportunities to learn something new each week. The week concludes with a Friday pizza party!
