Explore Greater Victoria's Beautiful Beaches, Lakes, Water Parks, Forests, Playgrounds, Parks, and Pools
Our Greater Victoria summer camp explores the stunning shorelines and lush natural spaces of the Island. We spend time at local beaches, pools, and shaded forest parks with daily out-trips to places such as:
Cadboro Bay Beach and Gonzales Beach: On our beach days, we head to these expansive Victoria beaches, which provide plenty of space for games, outdoor play, and shoreline exploration.
Prospect Lake: We visit this scenic lake for swimming, nature walks along the shore, and peaceful outdoor discovery.
Water Parks and Aquatic Centres: We stay active and cool by visiting local water parks and community pools, including Carnarvon Rotary Water Park, Esquimalt Adventure Water Park, and the Oak Bay and Esquimalt Recreation Centre pools.
Local Parks and Playgrounds: We explore the unique natural beauty and active play spaces found throughout Greater Victoria.
Indoor Backup Plan: If the Victoria weather calls for a break from the outdoors—whether it's heavy rain or wildfire smoke—we move our activities to local indoor pools or other attractions for indoor fun.

Camp Activities
Swimming, games, arts and crafts, playground games, sports, forest exploration, sand play, table games, talent shows, and more based on the interests of each camper.
The Rainforest Philosophy
Our non-profit camps prioritize nature-immersion and active, outdoor play. We are participant-centred, following the unique interests and curiosity of every camper to spark self-discovery. We strive to cultivate a community built on kindness, respect, empathy, and connection.
As a screen-free environment, we trade devices for discovery. Our team is composed of career professionals, including Teachers, EAs, and Lifeguards, who bring maturity and expertise to the field. We aim to maintain lower ratios at our summer camps (supported by dedicated volunteers) to ensure optimal safety and mentorship.
We seek to empower, inspire, and create community through every adventure.
Our goal is to create the safest, healthiest, and most respectful community possible. We have a zero-tolerance policy for physical, verbal, and emotional violence. If a camper is violent, their family will be called to pick them up and the rest of their camp registration will be cancelled and refunded.
Camperships Available
We want to encourage kids and youth who positively impact their communities and demonstrate kindness, empathy, and respect.
