Exploring a national park
Coastal Camp is a proud partner of the National Park Service. Our week-long day camps in the Marin Headlands provide campers with a unique coastal setting. Every day we explore the park and engage campers' curious minds and boundless energy by having fun and investigating the natural world.
Learning and adventures
Campers get up close with the wild, create field sketches while overlooking the Pacific Ocean, observe seals and other animals in their natural habitat and hike along coastal trails to the historic Point Bonita Lighthouse. Campers connect with nature while forging friendships and developing interpersonal and leadership skills.
Convenience and quality
Coastal Camp was founded in 2006 and has been providing high quality, experiential learning and fun ever since. Our highly trained staff of educators and counselors have extensive backgrounds working with kids. We offer extended care options and financial assistance.
“Coastal Camp is such a great opportunity to expose kids to the incredible natural environment that surrounds SF. Even though we live near these things, we don’t take enough time to enjoy them so it is great to have chunks of time for kids to spend time exploring and understanding the landscape.”
