It was kind of like a combination escape room, scavenger hunt, and stroll up and down the Santa Barbara wharf. We did it in a group of two, which was totally doable, but I bet it would also be fun in bigger groups where you split up and compete against each other. Also super affordable. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to spent an afternoon solving puzzles together in a beautiful part of town.

I noticed the atmosphere has a different vibe to it compared to other axe throwing places. Wha stood out were the plants all over. I was so distracted by them. What we also noticed was the guy didn't warn us about our shoes and I was wearing sandals. Luckily my friend pointed it out and said he shouldve mentioned it. So that's not good and negligent on his part. I didn't feel safe after playing. Besides that, it was cool and fun.

This camp is fabulous because it's just incredibly loosely structured; the kids get to do some fun games and activities and crafts, and they can surf and boogie board and swim and snorkel and paddle with supervision and expert assistance, and they can also just sit and dig holes all day, and they will get a high five and to pet the camp doggie! There are tons of sunny campers to supervise their all day play and help them all have a great experience. One of my kiddos had a hard time with waves and got scared (we aren't from here so she isn't super down with the ocean yet) and was hysterical, but one of the counselors was there to get her through that fear, offered her a private surf lesson the next day and got her excited about the ocean and she did some surfing and boogie boarding independently! The counselors are super kind and stoked to get all the kids to love the beach. Obvious this would be awesome for any locals, but I will add we came down from Seattle to go to a family reunion thing and we put our kids in this for the week, and it was the most brilliant vacation scheme ever; the kids got a great California experience, the adults got hours every day where we got to be kid free! I would highly recommend this if you have friends planning a summer vacation in SB to suggest they look into if this camp is happening!
