Our summer rowing camps are a four-day camp for all children between 12 and 17 who would like to either experience rowing for the first time or to get more time on the water locked in over the summer. It provides an opportunity for kids to get outdoors and explore the world of rowing in a fun and safe environment with games and rowing related water activities leaded by our excellent coaches’ team.

One of the most excited and highlight activities must be the Round Island Trip. Kids will first learn all the basic technique on the quad sculls steered by coaches as the coxswain. Then they will get on a s maller boat like double sculls or single sculls and undergo a capsize drill training to get well prepare for coping with different situation in coastal rowing. Finally, they are given confident to finish the Round Island Challenge and more importantly, to enjoy and explore the surrounding coastline.
