About This Camp

Family Camp is a beloved tradition at Bethany Beach — open to all ages. It's like a summer vacation with purpose: your family relaxes and plays together by the beach, grows in faith together, and connects with other Christian families in a warm, supportive setting. Come as a family or come and be part of ours.

What to Expect

Something for Everyone

Mornings feature intergenerational Bible study and interactive devotionals with kids, teens, and adults learning together. Afternoons are free to hit the beach, explore the boardwalk, or nap in a hammock. Evenings bring bonfires, outdoor movie night, group games, and casual worship.

Age-Appropriate Breakouts

While much of camp is spent together, optional breakout activities let little kids do crafts or storytime, teens join a fun outing, and parents enjoy a coffee break fellowship or couples' devotional.

Flexible Options

Choose a full week or half-week stay. Several lodging options fit every family size and budget. Kid-approved meals are included, and we cap costs per family to keep it affordable.

Family Bonding in Faith

Slow down and reconnect with each other and with God. Laugh together at silly games, support each other in the sandcastle contest, and have meaningful talks about faith while watching the sunset. Many families create traditions they return to year after year.

Family Camp is a gift of togetherness — a chance to unplug and be present with your loved ones, surrounded by a loving community. Parents say it strengthens family bonds and renews their spirit. Kids love that their parents get to do camp too!
