The National Aquarium is a nonprofit organization that connects people with nature to inspire compassion and care for our ocean planet. Summer is synonymous with camp, and for kids fascinated by all things ocean, what better way to make their summer than by registering them for an Aquarium Summer Explorers experience? Learn about animals from all over our blue planet—from the depths of the ocean to the canopy of the rain forest—and discover the connection they all share with water. The National Aquarium's Summer Explorers program offers overnight summer experiences in the field and at the Aquarium. Guided by the National Aquarium's expert staff of education specialists, campers will explore the world of animal care at the Aquarium and investigate conservation work happening on our campus and beyond. Registrations will be accepted for students in grades 6 through 12 and 2025 graduates.
