We are very excited you are considering joining us this summer at AQUATICS CAMP! It is the vision of Aquatics Camp to provide an unparalleled experience for youth at an amazing day camp this summer. We promise to offer kids fun and adventure in the great outdoors! These experiences will help the campers develop leadership skills and values that are important for a happy, healthy and safe summer.
We are a camp for boys and girls ages 6-14. Owned and operated by the North Florida Council, Boy Scouts of America, this property is located at the St Johns River Base at Echockotee sitting on beautiful Doctors Inlet. We provide day camp for 4 weeks of summer, highlighting one of our local treasures: the water. But we are not just a water camp, we have a 50' climbing/repelling wall, BB and Archery Range, Fun Ecology Area, Sports Activities and much more!
Aquatics Camp is accredited each summer by the National Camp Accreditation Program. This means the camp has met strict guidelines in health, safety, staffing qualifications and programming. We are managed by trained, certified staffers who care about your camper and our program. We are prepared for unlikely emergencies and ability to attend to minor medical issues of the campers in our care.
We firmly believe that your camper will leave with valuable new skills, abilities, interests and a few new friends. We pull resources from the Boy Scout of America’s merit badge program in many of our program areas, which give all scouts opportunities to earn merit badges or accomplishments towards rank advancement. If you are a registered Scout (Pack, Troop, Crew or Ship), take advantage of all our council properties throughout the year as part of your year-round camping program. If you have a boy or girl between the ages of 6-18 and are not a registered Scout, please ask our Office Manager for information to get involved in your area.
Please see the Menu to the right for detailed infomation regarding your campers registraion and experience.
