YMCA Camps

We came as strangers, we go as friends

YMCA Camps Summer is a time for kids to have fun! It’s also a chance to learn and grow. Our camp programs offer an opportunity for kids ages 5 to 17 to learn about themselves, grow in self-confidence and make new friends in a safe and caring environment. From day camps that get kids outside and having fun to overnight camps that help foster independence and teamwork, the YMCA has something for everyone. Each camp is designed to help kids reach their potential!

YMCA Camp Elphinstone (ages 5 - 17) Located on BC’s Sunshine Coast near Gibsons, YMCA Camp Elphinstone is just a 40-minute ferry ride from Vancouver. Overnight camps are offered in one-, two- and four-week options. Specialized sailing, biking and hiking camps are also available. Whether it’s exploring the outdoors by canoe or mastering the art of archery, YMCA Camp Elphinstone offers 144 acres of natural beauty for your child to engage in physically active and exciting camp programs.

Day Camps (ages 5 - 12) These camps feature exciting activities to keep your kids having fun all week (or summer!) long. Each day, campers learn new skills and develop new friendships in a welcoming environment. Camps feature out trips, outdoor activities, sports, games and the recommended 90 minutes of physical activity per day.

Outdoor Adventure Day Camp (ages 5 - 12) These camps provide a ton of fun for action-focused kids who love the outdoors. Campers participate in a variety of land and water-based activities such as geocaching, fishing, sports, forest games and arts & crafts.
