Eco Kids Camps — Summer, Easter & Christmas Camps in Barbados

Eco Kids runs three camps a year in Barbados for children ages 2–12: Summer Camp (June 29 – August 28, 2026), Easter Camp, and Christmas Camp. Camps are based at La Cabane on Batts Rock Beach (St. Michael) and Holders House Gardens (St. James), with bus transport from the South and West Coasts. Days run 8:30am–2pm with optional after-care. Children learn about community, environment, life skills & arts — with plenty of space and time for free play, new skills and getting muddy & messy while making great friends.

TUESDAY - Earth Heroes Day Circle up! Today we're talking clean beaches in Barbados, then the kids become beach warriors on our cleanup mission. Saddle up for horseback riding, get messy in our beach science lab, and wind down with magical storytelling under the palms. 🐚

THURSDAY - Create & Play Day Circle time, gymnastics to get those wiggles out, then it's music jam session time! Kids will make their own instruments, test their balance on the slackline, play beach games, and create beach-worthy jewelry. *Special for 8+: Scuba diving with G Fish! 🤿

FRIDAY - Grand Finale! Our last circle features an eco talk about Green Barbados, followed by the ULTIMATE sandcastle competition (parents, prepare for architectural masterpieces 🏰).

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We provide transportation services for parents who are unable to drop off or pick up their children. Our service covers several locations on the South and West Coasts. We work with a trusted chauffeur/bus company that has years of experience transporting young children to and from school. If you have any questions regarding the pickup points, locations, or drop off logistics, please direct them to us.

  • Please send your children into camp in clothes that you do not mind returning home either splattered in paint or caked in mud! We are a hands on, roly poly kind of place. Please label every item with your child’s name and send the bare minimum to camp.

  • Food availability depends on the camp location. Where available, snack and lunch can be booked in advance at a cost of BBD $25 per day. Children are always welcome to bring their own snack/lunch boxes — we kindly request that whole foods be brought into camp in lunchboxes. Please confirm with us whether food is offered at your child’s camp location.

  • We kindly request that if any child has any severe allergies that they bring their own packed lunch as we will be unable to cater to their needs.

  • We offer after hours care for up to between 1–2 hours after camp has finished at a fixed rate of $15 per hour

  • Camp day 8:30am to 2pm

  • We have a trained lifeguard on site at all times when children are in the pool. We also have qualified first aiders on our staff.

    Children go into the pool in age appropriate groups and we have trained Early Years and Swimming teachers who look after the little ones and non swimmers.

  • For children aged 2 to 5, we have a ratio of 1:4 children

    As the children get older the ratio increases. 5 to 9 years 1:7 children

    9 to 12 years 1:10 children

  • The children on camp are structured into 3 groups to enable activities that are age appropriate to take place and to facilitate easy registration.

  • We register children in their groups throughout the day, 4 times a day. On entry, at snack time, at lunchtime and 30 minutes before home time. We also teach the children to set their own boundaries at the start of camp and children clearly tag where they think is in/appropriate to go. We have designated adults in the different zones of camp throughout the day and one person on routine

  • There is a lost property table that you can help yourself to items left on camp. We also photograph items and post them on the Whatsapp group for collection. If after 2 weeks they are not collected we donate them to charity.

    Please label your child’s name on every item that comes on camp from hats, to clothes to water bottles and lunchboxes so there is no confusion.
