Epic Water Adventures
Kids can grow and build confidence in and around the water this summer thanks to water-filled programs that Little Adventures offers. The Get Yourself OnBoard class teaches kids how to paddleboard, the Snorkel Squad class gives them the opportunity to discover vibrant marine life, and the Surf’s Up class teaches little surfers how to catch a wave.

Learn About Marine Life
If your kids prefer to stay on land, there are still plenty of free and fun activities for them. The Join the Pinfish Patrol class helps young travelers get into fishing as they learn about different types of bait, how to use a fishing rod and practice baiting their own hooks. The See Creatures class allows kids to explore the shoreline, collect small marine life, and learn about animals that call the Gulf and Choctawhatchee Bay home. Additionally, the Cast and Conserve class helps young anglers improve their fishing skills while also learning about how conservation efforts and fishing regulations work to protect the coastal ecosystems.

Local moms, known as Online Scouts, are available to help fellow parents plan their vacations with confidence and ease. Find the Ask a Scout feature on the destination’s website or AdventureDWB.com.
