Science Camps of America

The classrooms at Science Camp for Teens are the the forests, mountains, ocean, shores, and volcanoes of Hawaiʻi Island. This summer camp gives teens the opportunity to get outside and do science, to meet scientists, to learn about geology, botany, ecology, marine science, astronomy, space exploration, engineering, and more. Join us for an amazing summer experience at what Condé Nast Traveler named one of the Best Sleepaway Camps in America.

At EARTH Camp, students explore the sciences of islands, continents, oceans, atmosphere, astronomy, space exploration, plants, animals and more. Activities are hands-on and provide fun ways to learn.  At this day camp students grow plants, extract DNA, learn about volcanoes, forests, the ocean and the creatures that live in them, learn to solder, build and launch rockets, and learn how we can care for our amazing planet.  

"I want to thank you for a fun filled exciting week of exploration and learning for my son! He came back happy, fulfilled, smarter and more motivated in school! He learned a lot (while having fun) about science and the natural world, gained confidence and independence, made new friends from around the country, and just grew up a little by doing something totally new for him. Thank you for providing such a fun and unique experience. My son mentioned how the counselors were mind blowingly smart, how he made friends, got off his junk food addiction, and proved he didn’t need his phone. Success!"

"The staff were very responsive to our questions and concerns which ensured us that our son was well taken care of during the camp. I looked forward to and enjoyed all the nightly email updates coupled with all the great pictures that the campers took of each other. It was a joy to see his smiling face in those images. I’m so thankful that we sent our son your camp. You are teaching invaluable life skills to these young people that they will apply to the rest of their lives."
