In our deeps regret, we have been notified by Emerald Bay Boy Scout that their venue is no longer zoned for adult gatherings and, therefore, under their new laws, won't be able to host Camp Xanadu in 2021. This comes at a time that our world needs camp more than ever. At camp, we experienced the celebration of human connection, the absence of technology, the permission to play & the reminder that nature is our divinity.
We chose hugs over handshakes. We liked our friends in person. We tried new things, laughed harder than we ever have, and met new wonderful souls who became lifelong friends & partners. But this doesn't mean that we need to stop bringing authentic and genuine energy into the world.

Close your eyes and imagine a distant island, pure and beautiful, unaffected by the rest of the world. A place where the gentle rhythm of the waves and the warm weather causes time to slow down.
Here on this island you can paddle through crystal clear waters, snorkel through coral reefs, kayak through caves, dive for lobster, hike rugged wilderness, sing-along campfire jams, discover buried treasure, perform in a talent show, get lost in arts and crafts, attend a thought-provoking workshop, dance barefoot in the sand, fall asleep under the stars and wake up to the sound of the ocean.Here the simplest moments are magical.

Just 22 miles from the coast of Los Angeles, Emerald Bay is a hidden gem located on the West End of Catalina Island, California, only accessible via private charter. The secluded beaches and coves that surround Emerald Bay are frequently counted among the top ten destinations in the world for diving.
We love providing an atmosphere for incredible people to come together and spark new ideas through conversation and learning. We believe that there can never be a surplus of knowledge and kindness in the world, and we want to break the mold of typical summer camp getaways. Add in the grand island views, and you've got the very definition of Xanadu: an idealized place of great and idyllic magnificence and beauty.

My fs niece registered and attended the summer camp. She had a great time. Loved the outdoor experiences and special care she received from the instructors.
She has tons of allergies and they made sure to ensure that she was not exposed to any of the listed allergens.
Her best experiences always revolved around barious activities in parks which showcases just how much time they allows the participants to spend outdoor. Something that is no necessary when during the year kids are in school or at home and always connected to their phones.
Overall, this place was a great place for my niece to
