Although the Transatlantic Council puts together some amazing Summer camps, maybe your unit is ready for a high adventure trip to one of the BSA’s top High Adventure bases? Recently our friends at Florida Sea Base opened their 2023 registration website:

Located in the Florida Keys, your Scouts can sail, fish, kayak, snorkel, SCUBA dive, and explore islands in the Florida Straits, Atlantic Ocean, and the Caribbean Sea. Sea Base’s 20 programs each specialize in a particular area of interest, whether your unit is experiencing these tropical environments or skills for the first time, or are experienced seafarers, Florida Sea Base is #open4adventure Participants sign up for adventures as a unit. Adventure crew sizes range from a minimum of 8 participants (adult and youth combined) to a maximum of 20 participants. Participants must be 12 years of age prior to arrival for all programs except Scuba, St. Thomas, or Out Island in which case participants must be 13 years of age.

If you don’t have an adventure crew to go with, take a look at their family camp info and see if your next family adventure will be at the Sea Base Family Camp!
