Each camp runs Monday – Friday, from 8:30a.m. – 3:30 p.m. Before and after care is not available, and we cannot accommodate early drop-offs or late pick-ups.   

The Aquarium’s Education staff, who are trained in best practices and certified in First Aid / CPR, will facilitate camp.  

Following the age requirements for public schools in Texas, our rising 3rd – 4th SeaCamp is available for students aged 8 – 9 years old by September 1st, of the current year. Our rising 5th – 6th SeaCamp is available for students aged 10 – 11 years old by September 1st, of the current year.

If your child needs to be administered medication during camp hours, please complete the Medical Administration Form and return it to Nicole Gaertner, Admin of Medication: Education Director, at [email protected] one week prior to camp. 

Each year, we strive to support young scientists through scholarship opportunities. The Texas State Aquarium has decided to sponsor youth affiliated with a local nonprofit organization, and therefore will not be accepting applications for individual scholarships.

Please ensure the participation waiver is digitally signed and dated for each camper and return it to [email protected] at least one week prior to camp. 

For additional information or questions, please review the Parent Packet above. Reach the Education team at [email protected]. 

Cancellation/refund requests must be submitted to [email protected]. A refund of 50% of the cost can be accommodated prior to the two-week registration deadline. However, if you decide to withdraw from this program after the deadline, your payment will not be refunded. If you have any questions, please reach out to [email protected].
