Sea Turtle Camp
Residential coed camp
Sea Turtle Camp is the ultimate marine biology program for teenagers. Come to beautiful Topsail Island, North Carolina or travel to tropical Costa Rica and become immersed in the incredible world of sea turtles.
During this camp you'll become an important part of the conservation effort, working alongside staff to rehabilitate sea turtles at the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Hospital or patrolling vital nesting beaches in the Caribbean. We'll also embark on a hands-on, feet-wet exploration of various coastal habitats by foot, by paddle, by surfboard, and by boat. You can even dive beneath the waves in our scuba classes.
Conservation is a compelling mission of this camp, so we'll spend up to 25 hours working on eco-service projects that directly improve the health of the ocean. If you're between the ages of 13-17 and seeking the marine biology adventure of a lifetime, Sea Turtle Camp is for you!
