Channel Islands Boating Center
Channel Islands Boating Center · Private
The Channel Islands Boating Center in Oxnard runs a week-long Summer Watersports Camp for ages 8 to 15 in which each camper picks one specialized activity for the week: kayaking, sailing, or standup paddleboarding. Days run 9:00am to 3:30pm Monday through Friday, with check-in from 8:30, and mix hands-on instruction with water- and land-based games, water safety and environmental education. Five weekly sessions run from late June through the end of July at $325 per week. The center is a partnership of Ventura County, the county Harbor Department, NOAA, the California Division of Boating and Waterways and CSU Channel Islands, and scholarships for one week of camp are funded by a DBW grant.

My son has happily gone to sailing camp here for several years. He even had his Florida cousin come along one summer, and a classmate from school in L.A. another summer. The counselor/coaches are professional and wonderful with the kids. We were sorry to miss Sailing Camp last summer due to COVID. We hope it is offered again next summer.
45 minute tours. Fun!!
