Waterfront Summer Camps

Maritime Adventure - Boat Camp

Explore all New York Maritime’s waterfront has to offer in this jam packed two weeks of activity. Discover sailing aboard a 23' keelboat with an instructor and your friends as crew, learn how to safely operate a powerboat with hands-on training, earn your New York State Boating Safety Certificate, try SCUBA diving, paddle around in kayaks, splash in the pool, go fishing, explore the fish, crabs and other marine organisms on the shore with nets and enjoy games and initiatives that foster self-confidence, communication, and teamwork.

No boating experience necessary.

Lunch, lifejackets and all safety equipment are included.

Here what parents are saying...

"Just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful camp experience my son had these past 2 weeks. He said it was the best camp he has ever been to and he can't wait until next year. I also have two younger boys aged 9 and 6 and they can't wait to go to your camp as well. Have a great summer and see you next year."

 "As a family member of one of your campers I would like to state that this camp is amazing. The staff is so knowledgeable/professonal/friendly. I will highly recommend this camp to others. The program, the way it is run and all the organized activities is to be commended. I will definitely have my nephew attend next year. I am so happy and grateful for everyone's work and dedication to all the children here. Thank you all again."
