Our Number One Priority is Camper Safety.
Hammerhead Beach Camp, Inc. Provides the Following Safety and Security Measures for All of Our Campers:


Excellent Camper/Counselor Ratios:
Mini-Hammerheads (4 year olds)     5:1
Hammerheads (5-9 year olds)         6:1
Guard Prep (9-13 year olds)           10:1

Cordoned-Off Area for Creative Activities:
Includes canopies providing shade for portions of each session.

Cold Water and Juice:
Drinks are available at all times.

CPR, Ocean Safety, and Constant Supervision:
Each senior counselor is CPR certified and has a strong background in ocean safety. In the ocean, counselors form a horseshoe and campers swim within the boundaries. Our counselors always accompany our campers to the restroom.

On-site First Aid and Communications:
Hammerhead Camp Director, Jamie Bateman, and/or her Assistant Director and the Camp Coordinator are on site during camp hours. Jamie is certified in CPR and First Aid. There is always a cell phone and first aid kit on the beach.



Testimonials:
