Fitness by the Sea is a beloved Los Angeles beach day camp founded in 2000 and recognized as the safest beach camp in the city for over two decades, operating at locations near the Santa Monica Pier and Will Rogers Beach. Each morning, counselors transform the beach into a hub of activity stations spanning surfing, boogie boarding, ocean instruction, soccer, baseball, gymnastics, art studios, puppet theaters, and even magic shows — over 200 activities total, with kids choosing what interests them each day. The program is especially thoughtful about water safety, offering specific ocean instruction for children with no prior beach experience. Staff average age 23 and bring energy and enthusiasm to an environment focused on friendship, personal growth, and fun — creating what many families describe as a true second home for their children.
