Welcome
Caregivers
Famous Adventures provides campers with outdoor adventure opportunities in a physically and emotionally safe environment. We believe in experiential learning to promote personal development. We envision a world in which campers grow up to become kind, responsible caretakers of the Lowcountry and the wider world.
How camp works:
Every day is a field trip!
- Choose your location (West Ashley or Mt Pleasant) and your age group (Discovery, Explorer or Adventure).
- Each of these six groups consists of two adult staff and 13 campers, traveling together in one van for the week.
- Caregivers meet your van at 8:30 am and 3:00 pm at Mt Pleasant Waterfront Park or in South Windermere on Folly Road.
What to Expect
Campers will participate in the main adventure activity in the morning (see schedules), and with the vans to travel in, the rest of the day varies widely! We'll visit playgrounds, get sweet treats, find geocaches, and more!
We are outdoors all day. On hot days, our staff are great at filling water bottles, re-applying sunscreen, and finding ways to cool off. If it rains, we usually find picnic shelters and play games, and we'll have fun despite a dreary day.

Where are you located?Plan to meet daily at 8:30 and 3:00 to join your camp / van: West Ashley: South Windermere Shopping Center, 90 Folly Road Mt Pleasant: Mt Pleasant Waterfront Park, 99 Harry Hallman Blvd *We're always on the move, so alternate schedules cannot be accommodated.
-
How many weeks can I register for?Each camp as the same schedule of adventure activities each week, but with the vans to travel in, the rest of the day varies widely! Most campers come for two weeks per summer. We limit campers to four weeks, by law* *Camps are not allowed to register campers for more than four weeks unless they are a day care facility.
-
Can I bring a friend?Yes! Of course! However, remember that we have groups of just 13 campers. We've found that bringing many friends (or carpooling with too many friends) can create disruptive group behavior. We will divide friend groups of more than 4 campers.
My boys spent so many great summers at this camp. Kendra and her gang have you covered. Somehow, after countless hours outdoors, they never came home sunburned- something I never managed to accomplish when they were on my watch! They always had a great time and I never worried about their safety or well being at this camp. Truly the best!
