About the provider

The camp says its directors, instructors, lifeguards, counselors, and counselors-in-training are specially trained and certified. It is led by industry professionals with decades of experience managing waterfront programming. Campers come from the Bronx, Westchester, Manhattan, northern New Jersey, and Long Island, and campers ages 10 and up can earn a New York Boating Safety Certificate.

Activities are suitable for beginner, intermediate, and advanced skill levels. No boating or sailing experience required. Campers are grouped by age and sometimes skill level at the discretion of the staff. Swimming is supervised by lifeguards, but formal swimming lessons are not offered during the camp day. Campers may request a mutual friend during registration.
