Summer Camp Santa Cruz, Portugal

22nd July 2024

We Love the beach!

Hello everyone! Today was a wonderful day for our campers! The surf campers started the day with going down to the beach again. We love watching them progress and it's obvious that they enjoy it a lot too!

Meanwhile some of the adventure campers also got to try out surf! They had an amazing time in the water and everyone loved it so much.
The others either got to learn some out door living skills like how to filter water, build a proper shelter or how to make a fire.
The last adventure group met up with their instructor and hoped on the longboards to get down some new tricks! Everyone felt even more comfortable on the boards and some of the campers even managed to learn some dance moves on the longboard.

In the afternoon our red campers took their water bottles down to the beach for our own beach olympics. They had to compete in tug of war, long jump, limbo and more. They all had a very good time on the beach and took the games very seriously.
The blues stayed at camp to do their choice activities. They could choose between tennis, volleyball or DIY bracelets. The amount of bracelets made was insane. Both the tennis team and volleyball team put their hearts on the courts and played so well!

After dinner everyone put on a show for the county they were representing during our International night! A lot of different dances and skits were performed from our counsellors countries!
