If you’re looking for a Sherman Oaks summer camp, Fitness by the Sea offers a unique camp that lets kids choose activities when they want—no set schedules—allowing them to try something new and build leadership skills, self-reliance, and self-confidence.
We offer week-by-week scheduling, so you can try a week, and if your kid loves it (and we think they will), simply add more weeks. Plus, our bus transportation service in Mar Vista and Cheviot Hills provides even more convenience, with bus stops available only 20 to 25 minutes away from most Sherman Oaks families.
Don’t let another summer pass by without providing this wonderful opportunity for your kids! Sign up today.

Different Camps for Different Campers
We are proud of how our camp accommodates so many different ages and types of kids. That’s why we offer two camp sizes:
Pacific Palisades Beach Camp: Ages 4½ to 14. This is our most established location, offering the largest variety of activities and an unmatched level of energy and spirit. Also, if you have a child age 12 to 14 is worried they’ll be the oldest kid there, this is a good choice, as we host a good amount of older kids every day here.
Santa Monica Beach Camp: Ages 4½ to 14. This is the perfect for kids who want to stretch themselves by trying new activities but also want a smaller camp experience.
And no prior ocean experience is required, non-swimmers are welcome! Because all the activities are age-appropriate and our camp counselors are patient and caring providing maximum individual attention for your child every step of the way.
Helping Kids Find Their Passion – Over 40 Activities Every Day!
We don’t force kids to do anything they don’t want to do. But because we believe kids grow by pushing themselves outside their comfort zone, we gently nudge them into trying new things before that window closes as they get older and they just don’t want to do it—or are told they can’t. Our activities allow kids to tap into their unique abilities and build confidence in a nurturing, positive environment.
At Fitness by the Sea Beach Camp your child will enjoy 5 different camp programs and activities all in the same day:
- Water Activities—surfing, boogie boarding, swimming, paddling…
- Team Sports—soccer, baseball, football, basketball…
- Creative Activities—arts and crafts, nature walks, obstacle courses, yoga…
- Individual Sports—gymnastics, martial arts, dance, cheerleading…
- In the Shade Activities– puppet shows, story telling, magic shows, face painting…
Our Stellar Staff
Our counselors are special people who get right in there and join the fun as active participants and supporters. Cheering loudly, singing energetically, coaching, returning a serve, lending a hand–FBS staff members are there for our campers every step of the way to ensure an amazing summer experience for each child.
No one on our staff sits on the sidelines and watches. We think that’s important because it demonstrates for each child a spirit of community, cooperation, and generosity—not to mention just plain fun! And we know these are lessons that will last a lifetime—not that your child will realize it. They will be too busy having the best time of their lives.
