The Program
Whether they are nervous about the deep or excited to take on the waves, our OCEAN Program (formerly Junior Lifeguard Camp) is all about building “Ocean Intelligence.” We focus on turning uncertainty into confidence, giving kids the skills to spot a rip current, the endurance to swim through the surf, and the teamwork to tackle any challenge the ocean throws their way, all without the pressure of intense competition.

The Details
In an environment as dynamic as the beach and ocean, it’s important to identify negative or dangerous situations before they occur. In our 20+ years operating youth programs on our local beaches we’ve had the opportunity to experience these situations and have developed protocols for avoiding and resolving them.

We care about your experience, every part of it. As parents of young children ourselves, we understand what’s important and we design and operate our programs to exceed our own expectations. We know your peace of mind is paramount.
