Sea Turtle Camp

Residential coed camp, ages 10-18

Topsail Island, NC ~ Costa Rica ~ Hawaii ~ Fl Keys

Established in 2009

Explore the ocean and the unique world of sea turtles, through our hands-on marine science summer camp! Our camp programs immerse teens, ages 10 - 17, in the field of Marine Biology. Campers learn about sea turtles and get hands-on experience in the scientific field while earning community service hours. We work closely with the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center in North Carolina, and a number of other vendors from all over the world in including Costa Rica, Hawaii, and the FL Keys.

Learn about careers in marine biology, take water samples from the Cape Fear River, scuba dive over North Carolina's shipwrecks, try your hand at surfing or stand-up paddleboarding and explore coastal ecosystems in exciting, exotic destinations around the world! Campers also earn between 10-30 community service hours while volunteering hands on at the sea turtle hospital, conducting beach sweeps, and doing nest walks. If you're seeking the marine biology adventure of a lifetime, Sea Turtle Camp is for you!
