Camp Locations
Flagship Campus - 455 Periwinkle Way
Sanibel Sea Schools Flagship Campus is located on the East end of the island near the Lighthouse. Both the bay and Gulf are just a short walk from our campus. Sometimes, we might take a field trip in one of our vans.
We have two buildings. The large blue one facing Periwinkle Way has our retail shop with everything you need for camp. The second one behind is our beloved Kennedy Building, where campers hang out during free time and lunch! Otherwise, we spend most of our time out at the beach. See more photos from past camps at this location here.
We offer camps here from June 9 to Aug. 22, 2025. Ages and pricing vary; see here for details!

Homestead Campus - 1300 Periwinkle Way
Sanibel Sea School is beyond grateful to have the Bailey Homestead as our special second location for summer camps. On this preserve, the historic Bailey home sits on a lush swath of SCCF land that features freshwater wetlands and interior ridges, creating a 19-acre wildlife corridor.
During these camps, in true Sanibel Sea School fashion, we hop in our vans and head to the ocean for hands-on marine science fun.
Drop off and pick up occur at 1300 Periwinkle Way, Sanibel. We spend most of our time at the beach, but we use the Homestead to have lunch and cool off under a covered pavilion. It's the perfect camp setting with picturesque gardens to explore, a wide-open grassy lawn for playing games, and within walking distance of hiking trails through wild Sanibel.

We offer camps from June 9 through Aug. 1, 2025. Ages and pricing vary; see here for details!
What's the difference?
- Island Skills weeks are run the same at both campuses but the themes are unique to each campus! We travel mostly in vans from the Homestead Campus and mostly by foot from Flagship Campus.
- Night Snorkels are offered 1/month to Flagship Campus only.
- Both Campuses have the opportunity to participate in the 4th of July Parade.
- They are about a 5-minute drive from each other. You can easily drop one camper off at one and make it to the other if you have siblings who want to go to separate camps.
- Our retail shop is at Flagship Campus, selling branded merchandise and essential camp gear!
