Unmask the myths behind pirates, discover legends about mermaids, and ‘dive’ into waters with maybe-not-so-mysterious sea creatures during Swashbuckling Summer! Campers will immerse themselves in Florida and Tampa history by focusing on pirates and explorers.

Open to children ages 7-11, History Adventure Camps include hands on experiences including games, crafts, outdoor activities, gallery time and guest speakers. At the conclusion of each camp, each child will take home a memory book of their adventures.

Each week-long camp is led by experienced educators who provide hands-on, educational activities for campers.
