About This Camp
The New York Aquarium’s summer camps, led by the award-winning Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) Education department, offer immersive marine science experiences for adventurers from toddlers to teens. As industry leaders in zoo and aquarium education, the program blends structured play with hands-on discovery to help campers develop a deep understanding of ocean life and conservation. Participants engage in high-quality, educator-led activities and close-up animal encounters, providing a unique underwater adventure that fosters a lasting connection to the planet's diverse aquatic ecosystems.
The Ocean Extremes program offers a comprehensive exploration of marine life, ranging from microscopic plankton to the planet's largest whales. Campers investigate diverse and extreme aquatic environments, including the crushing pressures of the icy deep sea and the intense heat of volcanic vents. This curriculum focuses on the remarkable biological adaptations that allow animals to thrive in Earth's most challenging habitats, providing a deep dive into the survival strategies of the ocean's most extreme species.
