Adventure Awaits: Parents and kids RAVE about this outdoor screen-free summer camp
Brought to you by Fota Adventure.
It’s the summer experience we dreamed about as kids.
Forget the regimented schedules, dump the schoolbags and abandon the screens. Imagine a magical land where kids disappear into a world of discovery, crafting their own adventures under ancient trees.
At Fota Adventure in Fota Island Resort, that dream becomes reality.
Here, your children can embark on a whirlwind of activity, four glorious hours each day packed with exploration, creativity, and pure, unadulterated fun.
Whether they’re building forts, unearthing the hidden secrets of the island, or simply revelling in the camaraderie of newfound friends, this camp promises memories that will last a lifetime – all under the watchful eyes of an experienced, friendly team.
The perfect experience for every child
Fota Adventure understands that not every child thrives in the same environment. For the little ones who might be hesitant about jumping right in, a Day Camp option (€60) offers a gentle introduction to the joys of camp life. It’s the perfect way for them to dip their toes into the world of exploration and social interaction.
For excited campers, guests aged from seven to 15 years old can look forward to five days as team members of Camp Alpha, Camp Bravo or Camp Charlie, depending on your schedule (€160).
They’ll learn everything from how to tackle an obstacle course and use a (child-safe, foam-tipped) bow and arrow to bushcraft and survival skills, field skills and orienteering.
Fryday will see eager kids get to grips with lighting fires and cooking their own food, while on Water Day they’ll definitely be needing a change of clothes!
The best part? While your children are off on their epic adventures, you get a well-deserved break. Yes, you might have to endure a car spin home filled with animated stories about “Terry” but that exhaustion-induced chatter is a testament to a summer well-spent… and it might even spark a lifelong love for the outdoors and the thrill of adventure.
