Summer in the San Juan Islands is an unforgettable experience. It isn’t just about the weather (although, it is near perfect,) but more so, it’s truly the season that makes the islands sparkle. The islands are often bustling in the summertime, full of visitors soaking in the salty breeze, and finding some relaxation away from their day to day lives.
With lots of families visiting in the summer, Orcas Island has some amazing summer camp options for kids to immerse themselves in island life. There are many choices on the table when choosing a summer camp, and Orcas has a variety of choices to suit different family needs. YMCA Camp Orkila and Four Winds Westward Ho offer more traditional overnight camp sessions with a myriad of activities for campers to participate in. Camp Orkila also offers a day camp option, with many of the same activities overnight campers get to experience. Sports and art focused day camps are also offered by the Orcas Island Park and Recreation District, Orcas Center and The Funhouse. Visitors and locals have their pick from an extensive list of camps, and all of them will add to a great island experience!
