Wellfleet Bay Nature Camp

Spend Your Summer at Wellfleet Bay Nature Camp

Wellfleet Bay Nature Camp inspires a child’s lasting curiosity and excitement about nature. Campers ages 4–13 have fun and make friends as they explore the nature of Cape Cod at our 1,100-acre wildlife sanctuary. 

Our goals are to instill awareness and appreciation of nature, to demonstrate responsibility for the environment, and to promote nature as an accessible and inclusive place for all. Above all, we create memorable outdoor experiences for our campers.
