Social media has been quiet...The beach? Not so much. 🌊☀️

For the past five weeks we’ve been surfing, paddleboarding, skimboarding, playing capture the flag, and even building some epic sand volcanoes (shoutout to Angie — camp counselor and science teacher extraordinaire🌋).

The best part isn’t just the activities — it’s watching campers make new friends, gain confidence, and fall in love with Lake Michigan.

📅 We have a few spots left for July 27–31 in both New Buffalo and St. Joseph. Every remaining week after that is full! If you missed out, send us a message and we’ll add you to the waitlist.

Let’s finish summer strong! ☀️

More places to play = more adventures for local kids. 🤙

That’s why we’re excited about the proposed St. Joseph Skatepark & Pump Track. It’s another opportunity for kids to build confidence, make friends, and spend more time outdoors — something we’re passionate about every day at Third Coast Beach Camps.

Whether you skate, BMX, scooter, or just love seeing kids outside, go share your ideas!
