Marine Camps

 

If your kids are ready for an adventure, you have just found it.  Always in a safe and controlled environment with our expert instructors. 

Our focus is always to keep the campers out on the boats and on and in the water to engage with the environment and see what they have learned from the class sessions in action. Each morning starts with a short academic session in the clubhouse and immediately followed by in-water activities from our dive and snorkel boats. This is repeated in the afternoon, with different topics and in-water activities to a different coral reef site or area.
 
The Ocean Frontiers' Marine Camp is suitable for students aged 8-17 years of age. 


The Campers will experience a selection of the following activities:-
 

  • Boat Skills - learn the ropes of crewing a boat with fun teamwork challenges.
  • Sea Safety - practice safety drills, man-overboard, flare tests and a life-raft race.
  • Marine Parks - know the rules and know why.
  • Hazardous Marine Life - learn how to stay safe in Cayman's waters. What's safe and what's not.
  • Sponges & Invertebrates - the fascinating lives of Cayman's sponges and starfish.
  • Maritime History - wrecks and artificial reefs of the Cayman Islands.
  • Coral Restoration in action - learn about our coral nurseries with hands-on experiences.
  • Sharks - New expanded session on why we must protect them and observe them in the wild.
  • Turtles - New expanded session all about those turtle dudes.

All sessions are run by qualified marine biologists and experienced and certified boat captains. The campers have direct supervision from the moment we pick them up, throughout the day, in the water, out of the water, lunch time and until we drop them off and release them to a parent or authorized care-giver. All staff are trained in Rescue, First Aid and CPR. All vessels are inspected and certified by the Cayman Islands Port Authority.


The Marine & Eco Camps run from 9:00am to 4.00pm daily.

 

Participants must be able to swim and be comfortable in the ocean and have their own dive mask and snorkel. All other equipment will be provided. 
 

Please note lunch is not included in the camp so you can either send your child with a packed lunch and snacks or money for lunch from Subway Sandwiches.
