MISSION & VISION
Camp By The Sea days are filled with age-appropriate activities, trips and exciting programs for children ages 2-13 in atmosphere where children from all backgrounds can explore and challenge themselves while learning with one another. Our campers are encouraged to try new activities and make new friends, all while learning life skills, confidence and self-esteem.
Rooted in Jewish Values, Camp By The Sea supports the mission of the Marjorie & Lewis Katz JCC, fostering an appreciation of Jewish identity, values, and culture. The camp programs works to strengthen Jewish family life, build a sense of community and ensure Jewish continuity for our children, our children’s children, and ourselves. We promote active participation in a safe and inclusive environment for all children. We strive to encourage positive attitudes through a high quality camp experience and to strengthen the Jewish family values and beliefs through play.

Camp By The Sea has brought so much joy to my granddaughter Ava over the years. The staff creates such a positive, spirited environment, and it's a thrill to see the campers so engaged and happy. We’re incredibly grateful for the experiences and friendships she’s made.
My girls are loving camp and their counselors so much! Great program and amazing energy!
My boys love camp!! They have so much fun and have tons of stories to tell me everyday when they get home!
My granddaughter loved Camp by the Sea with its warm and caring atmosphere. Although she was frightened of animals before she started the program, at the end she was happy to be petting the camp's collection of pets. Kudos to the staff at the Margate JCC!
