CBFS offers a variety of summer camps that give all campers a hands-on, feet wet experience.

Summer Camp - Campers explore coastal habitats, interact with marine and terrestrial creatures and spend the evenings enjoying traditional summer camp activities. Experienced Field Station Educators lead daytime field trips and activities, while resident chaperons live in the dormitory facility with campers and supervise them during non-class time.

Family Camp - If you could plan the perfect family vacation, what would you include? You would want to make enduring family memories and have an abundance of activities for everyone in the family to enjoy, right? It would be a scenic area, full of interesting learning opportunities and unique wildlife. Meals would be provided…and prepared for you! Nights would be full of laughter and fun with planned campfires and skit/talent show nights. This perfect all-inclusive family vacation would also be affordable.
