Join Us for the Best Beach Camp Experience for Los Angeles Kids Ages 4½ to 14!
Fitness by the Sea is the premier Los Angeles summer camp for kids ages 4½–14, providing a safe, high-energy day camp with flexible scheduling, beachside fun, and door-to-door bus transportation from neighborhoods throughout LA. Our day camps in Santa Monica and the Pacific Palisades help campers grow and make good choices.
Here are just a few:
- 100% safety record. In fact, we are recognized as “the safest beach camp” since our founding in 2000.
- We are offering convenient, flexible, week-by-week scheduling. YOU pick your schedule, not us. You can pick as many weeks as you want, from 1 to 11 weeks!
- Best-in-class kind, caring, and mature counselors. Our well-trained counselors are silly, goofy, but level-headed too! Average age is 23 years old.
- Up to 40 different beach activities offered daily, so each day is a completely different experience. At any given time, your child can be playing team sports, participating in camp performances, learning specialized skills, or having fun in the water.
- We cater to first-time campers and kids new to the ocean. No prior ocean experience is required. Non-swimmers are welcome! All of the activities are instructional and our camp counselors will teach your child how to do everything from the ground up at a comfortable pace.
All in the most beautiful beach environment anywhere!
Door-to-Beach Bus Service From Mar Vista & Cheviot Hills
Getting your camper to the sand is easy. Our modern, air-conditioned buses come equipped with seat belts, optional booster seats, and professional drivers from Mission School Transportation, so safety rides up front.
Two energetic FBS counselors join every route, turning the trip into a rolling camp with songs, trivia, and friendly contests.
Families from Los Angeles can hop on at 4030 S. Centinela Avenue in Mar Vista or the Cheviot Hills Recreation Center on Motor Ave., keeping ride times short and stress-free.
Round-trip bus service is an optional add-on. Drive when you’d like – ride when you need the convenience – so your schedule stays as flexible as our camp days.
From the first “good morning” on the curb to the last wave goodbye, the fun really does start the moment your child hops on board.

SAFETY IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT
- All staff members are CPR and First-aid Certified.
- For every 6 kids there is 1 staff member.
- Water Safety Measures – Counselors are placed directly in the water with the campers while on-staff lifeguards keep an eye from the shore line. And in close proximity you will find professional LA County Lifeguards patrolling the beach front.
- Children don’t go to the bathroom alone, there is always a staff member present.
- The staff sees that sun screen is applied several times throughout the day.

WE GIVE CAMPERS THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE THEIR OWN ACTIVITIES
At FBS campers are allowed to choose their own activities and groups each day. This helps develop independence and decision-making skills and ensures each child a unique and customized camp experience. Every day we offer over 40 different water activities, team sports, individual sports, creative activities and in the shade activities while our staff actively participates in every activity to serve as positive role models in teamwork, leadership, creativity, sportsmanship, and fun!
And we do all this because we know that when these activities are wrapped in a culture of fun and acceptance that lays a foundation for building extraordinary kids.

THE AVERAGE AGE OF OUR STAFF IS 23
We strive to hire staff members who have previously worked with kids and have a passion for teaching and mentoring. With an older staff, which includes many teachers and parents just like you, we can truly focus on your child’s development and well-being.
We know you are giving us an enormous responsibility when signing up for camp. We want you to have peace of mind that not only is your child safe, but they are being cared for on a one-on-one level that can only be provided by a mature staff with lots of experience working with kids of different ages in group settings.

GUARANTEED FUN!
At Fitness by the Sea, we are known for our flexibility. We want every child to have their best camp day ever. This flexibility extends to our enrollment process.

STRESS-FREE REGISTRATION!
With so many programs to choose from, we know choosing a Los Angeles summer camp isn’t easy. We believe our camp is the best out there, but if you have any concerns, please visit our FAQs. It has lots of information, and because we’ve been doing this for over 25 years, we know about a lot of the concerns parents have.
And because we like to make the signup experience as stress-free as possible, remember you can always sign up for more weeks, change the weeks, and add on some of our amazing options like extended care.
