If you vacation with younger children who may not as yet have developed an appreciation for the beach, sun, and ocean water, we have a suggestion for their entertainment.

Again, for 2010, the town of Ocean Isle Beach will be sponsoring a Childrens’ Camp beginning on the first Monday of June and will run until the third Thursday in August.

Camp OIB is located at the Community Center at 44 East First Street-just a short walk from the Ocean Isle Inn.  Sessions are held 4 days a week from Monday through Thursday from 10:00 until 12:00, weather permitting.  Campers ages are from 3 to 10 years of age.  Camp OIB can accommodate up to 35 campers per day.  Camp registration begins each day at 9:30 and no reservations are required. An adult must stay with the child for the daily camp session.  The camp is provided free of charge but donations are greatly appreciated.

The activities include games, arts and crafts, music, dancing, and stories representing various themes such as boating & water safety; turtles; mermaids and tropics; pirates; seashells, and beach games.

This is also provides a wonderful opportunity for visitors to meet other children while they are away from their friends at home.  The adults will also enjoy meeting other vacationers from around the world, and often they will arrange beach play dates for their children while at Ocean Isle Beach.

So, come see us and bring the whole family! There are plenty of things to do during your vacation at Ocean Isle Beach.
