Recreation

Camp Magruder is situated between a freshwater lake and the ocean, and blessed with pine forest and wetland communities. Smith Lake offers opportunities for swimming, rowing, canoeing, kayaking, and sometimes even sailing. The beach is a great place for walks, playing in the sand, and supervised wavejumping.

Campers may also enjoy the Big Swing, donkey rides, nature discovery, crafts, challenge course and team building activities, archery, and visiting the tide pools. Our caring staff provides a wonderful and safe environment for building self-confidence, fostering friendships, and growth in community.
