Balmoral Adventure Camp: 9th - 11th December, 2024

About Balmoral Camp:

Located right next to Balmoral Beach and Balmoral Oval, Adventure Camp HQ is in the Sea Scouts Hall. We explore from there.

Our Balmoral Camps have more space than most – so we play plenty of big, fun outdoor games.

We also spend lots of time down at the beach during the warmer months, and make our way up to Middle Head for some fun in the old gunners barracks.  During Winter, we skip the water for more land based games.

Location & Drop Off:

Camp Location:  1st Balmoral Sea Scouts Hall, Balmoral Park, The Esplanade, Mosman NSW 2088.

Drop Off Point:  End of the Car Park, next to Balmoral Park.  Lookout for the Adventure Camp flag.
