On World Environment Day, we’re proud to partner with Jean-Michel Cousteau and the @OceanFuturessociety, because caring for the ocean begins with understanding it. Cousteau brings the spirit of exploration, education, and a deep respect for the environment to our Family Camp each summer. 🌊

Only one week until Catalina! Snorkeling, sailing, day trips, and more await our campers this summer. Are you ready to get on island time?
One of the most important parts of staff orientation at Catalina Island Camps is getting to know each other and becoming part of the CIC culture.
As we get ready to welcome our campers, our staff is working hard while having plenty of fun along the way.

It’s not about letting go, it’s about letting them grow. Camp offers a safe, supportive space where kids build confidence, form real friendships, and discover what they’re capable of—because when we give them a little room, they learn just how much they can do on their own.

Memorial Day is a time to reflect on those who gave everything for our country.
Because of them, we’re able to experience moments like this—time on the water, building independence, and a deeper connection to the world around us.
Today, we remember and honor ❤️🤍💙
