  • HOW FAR OUT DO WE GO: We will be fishing the calm waters off the local Port Jefferson Area and will usually be fishing within just a few miles from the dock.  Safety and comfort of the kids is our primary and main focus, so should there be any issue with the weather, etc, then we will adjust our trip to assure everyone is comfortable and safe. 
  • SPACES ARE STRICTLY LIMITED: to ensure each child has excellent supervision and care.  This trip will sell out fast, so please absolutely book ahead!!
  • WHAT IS INCLUDED AND WHAT IS NOT: We include all Rods, Reels, Bait, tackle, safety equipment (life jackets), etc. Everything they need for activities is included.  The only thing they need to bring is lunch. We provide the rest!  **Note ** Lunch and drinks are not provided.
  • PRICE:  $300 per session (includes 4 dates spread out between a 2 week period)      


** Please Note: All Camp Enrollments MUST be paid for in full. Sessions cannot be split up - this is due to the high demand of interest for camp dates. Splitting up sessions would leave less room for children who are able to complete a full session and make us add more children to another trip. To provide the best level of service/safety we cannot split up sessions. **

And we have made it even better for this year!! After getting lots of great ideas and feedback, we are including even more of the activities that the kids told us they enjoyed the most! Again, camp will be held on the Celtic Quest IV, which is even bigger, roomier and more comfortable for all onboard. 

We are limiting the amount of spots for the camp to ensure that once again we can provide the highest quality experience for your child, with lots of one on one instruction and hopefully lots of big fish to reel in!! So please enroll soon if you would like a spot for your child.

 We had a feeling that camp was going to be a hit, but the feedback far surpassed even our expectations! We have already received countless emails from parents who's children attended the camp through the years:

  • "Please please let us know when the next camp is. My son cant wait to join you again. He had the time of his life!!"
  • "What a great camp for my daughter! She came home every day with a huge smile and couldn't wait till the next session the following week. She definitely wants to go again this year!!"
"I have to tell you.....that was the best camp my son has ever been to. Thank you so much for putting together such a great program for the kids!"



Hope you can join us!!!  ~ Captain Desmond O'Sullivan
