Barbados Summer Camps 2017
by Monique
Barbados has an abundance of adventure and enrichment-based summer camps. Here are just five Barbados summer camps on offer this year:
Aquarius Watersports Summer Camp
This six-week summer camp is based on Browne’s Beach in Carlisle Bay. This is the ideal safe learning location because of the tranquil waters which are home to an abundance of marine life. In fact, this spot is known for having more fish than any other part of Barbados. It also boasts access to four shipwrecks which have sunk between 1917-1996. The camp is not only focused on exploring the natural underwater world of Barbados, but also teaching teenagers to communicate with others, no matter their walk of life. The camp accepts international participants as well as Barbadians. Their motto is: “be reasonable, be rational, be responsible”.

Camp activities include:
