Scouts BSA Summer Resident Camp at
Camp Fiesta Island, on beautiful Mission Bay
Spend a week of Scouting adventure on the beach at Camp Fiesta Island! This Aquatic Center facility is located on beautiful Mission Bay. You'll camp among the sandy dunes and set sail for the Pacific Ocean. Campers at CFI enjoy the ultimate waterfront experience.
Scouts can kayak the bay, test their skills in the famous Flying Hull and Nautical Survival programs, or spend the day learning to surf. Meals are prepared by one of San Diego's finest caterers. Camp Fiesta Island is Southern California at its best!
Along with our very popular merit badge and first year "Mariner" programs, the CFI summer camp experience will feature exciting activities for Scouts of all ages. Pack your trunks and sun screen for a great summer camp!

PAYMENT SCHEDULE & CANCELLATION POLICY
Units that cancel/drop participants will forfeit any payments due by that date, whether payment has been made or not.
We have a NO REFUND POLICY. Each payment is based on number of campers, not named individuals. If there are any reductions in total numbers (youth or adult) after each payment due date, the unit will be responsible for the money due at the time of the cancellation, even if no payment has been made. We encourage you to find a replacement if a Scout or leader needs to cancel. Cancellations due to extenuating circumstances are subject to approval. Cancellations must be done in writing and emailed to sdiccamp@scouting.org.
Day Trekker Scouts BSA Camp
Day Trekker Camp at Camp Fiesta Island is a Monday - Friday Day Camp Program exclusively for Scouts BSA. Campers can enroll in any age appropriate day programs, including Mariners (Trail to First Class), SCUBA, personal watercraft, and all the traditional merit badges offered at Camp Fiesta Island! More information and registration for Day Trekker is coming in February.
No Troop…no problem!
Scouts who cannot attend camp with their own troop, or wish to attend for additional weeks, may attend as part of our provisional troop. The provisional troop is made up of youth from San Diego-Imperial and other councils. It is a great opportunity to meet new friends and experience summer camp in a whole new way. More information and registration for Provisional Scout is coming in February.
