Adult Summer Camps
Being grown up doesn’t have to mean that summer camp is a thing of your past, because adults can go to camp, too. The following Web sites offer some ideas about the adult summer camps out there and what it’s like to attend camp as a “big kid.”
Dulcinea's Insight
- Check some of the more extensive camp directories in the “Find a Summer Camp” section of this guide for “adults only” sections.
- Some major associations and societies such as the Sierra Club sponsor camps for adults. Browse the Web sites of these organizations or others to which you belong to find an adult summer camp.
- Some adult summer camps are referred to as “outings.” If a “summer camp” search isn’t yielding results, use “summer outings” as a search term instead.
- If you’re single, a singles travel service or other reputable travel agent may be able to connect you with a summer camp opportunity for single adults.
