Give your young paddler the perfect summer on the water! Our Junior Summer Camps are designed for students who’ve already started their paddling journey this year and want to keep building confidence, skills, and friendships in a fun, supportive environment.
These camps are ideal for juniors who have completed a beginners’ course — but if they haven’t yet, no problem! Just let us know on the form and we’ll get in touch with options to complete one before camp begins.
