No other summer program offers as many face-to-face encounters to closely observe and study whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals and puffins in their natural habitat. Through direct observation, data collection and hands-on experience with marine science equipment The Whale Camp is the place where exploration & inspiration abound. We celebrate nature’s grandeur, beauty, serenity and power and help you discover your own.
Here, learning is a fun, hands-on adventure. The Whale Camp is where you can be comfortable with yourself, have fun, improve self esteem & make lasting friends. With our oceans and climate in peril come experience the magic of our island and learn how you can help “Save the Humans”! For more information and a free brochure call Dennis Bowen. Programs for students ages 10-17, families, teachers & school groups.
