Wellfleet Bay Natural History Day Camp

Dive into a world of discovery and adventure at the Wellfleet Bay Natural History Day Camp, where the great outdoors is your playground. This camp, situated in the heart of an expansive 1100-acre coastal wildlife sanctuary on Cape Cod, offers a treasure chest of nature-filled activities for explorers aged 4 to 14. As a camp-goer, the sanctuary becomes an open book, encouraging kids to learn about the vibrant ecosystem around them. A typical day might see them using nets to catch fish and crabs, combing through the underbrush in search of frogs and salamanders, or keeping their eyes peeled and ears tuned for the symphony of birds. The bug catchers in the group won't be disappointed, as there are plenty of insects to investigate. However, the adventure doesn't stop within the boundaries of the sanctuary. Older campers will also step out on exciting off-site expeditions, where they can experience the thrill of kayaking, snorkeling, hiking, and even whale watching. They might also get the opportunity to shadow a field researcher, adding a touch of real-world science to their summer escapade. Each week at the Wellfleet Bay Natural History Day Camp brings a fresh theme, ensuring that every week feels like a new adventure. So, whether your child is a budding biologist or just loves the great outdoors, this camp provides a summer experience that is as enlightening as it is entertaining.
