AquaCamps offer your children a fun, educational experience of a lifetime. Our camps are filled with hands-on activities, animal observations, crafts and time to run around outside to fully engage your children in an environment that encourages active learning. Children will learn about local and exotic animals, life cycles, food webs, adaptations, ecosystems and sustainability. Many of our lessons will also support what they learn in their classroom.
Please register according to the grade level your child will be entering in Fall 2012. Once registered, we will be requesting emergency and pick-up information through email. We will also be emailing you more information regarding your child's camp one week before it begins. Please keep an eye out for these emails.

With our new Extended Camp option, your campers will have an extra two hours per day at the Aquarium and you won't have to leave work early to pick them up! Add this option to any of our full day camps. Extended Camp is not available for Sea Squirts.
During this extra time, campers will be able to spend more time with their most favourite animals, journal about aquatic adventures or even visit sea stars on the beach when low tide is later in the day.
Notes: Campers receive a t-shirt with original design on the first day!
Cancellation Policy: Cancellations within two weeks of the program will be charged 50 percent of the booking price. Rescheduling within two weeks of the program will be charged 25 percent of the booking price. The Vancouver Aquarium reserves the right to cancel a camp one week prior to start date due to low registration.
