Kids Summer Surf Camp in Donegal
Kids Summer Surf Camp
School's out, and the house is loud. A summer surf camp in Inishowen gets kids outside, in the sea, and tired in the good way. Our surf camps for kids in Donegal run through the summer holidays and are built for children who want more than a single lesson: a few days in a row, the same faces, and real progress by Friday.
What a Surf Camp Day Looks Like
Camp days mix surfing with beach time. Kids warm up, learn something new about the water, spend time on boards, then take a break on the sand before going back in. Because it's a week of repeats, kids leave standing up on waves they'd never have caught on day one. It's a good example of an active kids camp in Ireland doing what the label says.
Junior And Teen Camps
Our junior surf camp is for younger kids, with a gentle pace and plenty of supervision. Older kids and teenagers can join the adventure camp for teenagers in Ireland, where sessions push harder. For teens who'd rather book single lessons, see kids and teen surf lessons.
Half-Term And School Holiday Activities
Camps aren't only for July. If you're hunting for half-term activities in Donegal or school holiday activities in Ireland, ask us about dates outside July. Even a single midweek day makes a holiday camp in Donegal feel worthwhile.
Camps Near Derry And Around The Peninsula
Camp sessions run on the Inishowen peninsula, an easy drive for families in Derry. Find out more about where we teach. If your kids like the outdoors in general, our kids outdoor activities in Inishowen page has ideas for the days between camps.
Book Early
Places fill. The summer camp booking window in Donegal opens well before the holidays, and we'd rather you book early than find out in July. Book online or use the contact page to ask about dates. Looking for a present instead? A surf lesson gift voucher can cover camp days.
