Many summer camps that are near or adjacent to bodies of water offer canoeing as an activity, but few camps offer a true canoe camp. A canoe camp is a truly immersive experience where campers spend the first few days of camp learning or reviewing canoeing basics and safety, and then they set off like the first explorers, with nothing but their canoes, food and camping gear.
