It’s the home of ice hockey, poutine and some very famous faces. But did you know it’s also the home of some pretty spectacular summer camps.

 

Introducing Summer Camp in Canada

Canada is an unmissable opportunity for those who want to experience the country with a difference you should consider applying to work at a summer camp.

It’s mind-blowing scenery and iconic wildlife mixed with wooden cabins and world class facilities… essentially it’s the best of Canada packed into a traditional summer camp setting.

 

Sounds Great Eh?

Here’s our top 5 reasons you should be signing up to work in Canada immediately.

 

1. Locations

Canada is iconic. Dramatic. Breath-taking. It’s always voted as one of the world’s top destinations to visit and it’s easy to see why.

You can work with accredited summer camps all across the country.

Most are located in Ontario with the rest spread through Quebec, British Columbia and Alberta. All of the camps are located away from the big Canadian cities in beautiful remote areas.

 

2. The Food

Canada’s cuisine is world renowned. Cheese curds on fries with gravy, yes please. Tim Horton’s famous coffee and doughnuts, if we must. Maple syrup soaked everything, sign us up immediately. 

Food is heavily celebrated in Canada. With the French influences of Montreal, the seafood of Vancouver and nationwide food festivals - the food alone is a great reason to go sink your teeth in.

 

3. Travel & Natural Wonders

Canada is a massive country proudly hosts 16 of the world’s UNESCO heritage sites and has plenty more locations for you to add to your bucket list. It’s jam packed with adventures including seeing Niagara Falls and the Rockies - both two of the best things to do in Canada.

By going to work in Canada during summer, you’ll be able to take your wages, your new friends and use your after camp travel to go on an unbelievable adventure.

Plus you’ll able to get up to 6 months travel time afterwards, so plenty of time to try and do everything.

 

4. Money

The Canadian dollar is historically better value than the American Dollar and the cost of living is a lot less. It’s affordable - Ottawa, for instance, has been repetitively named the most affordable North American city.

 

5. Summer Camp

Canadian summer camps have been around for years, they sport fantastic facilities and are all in iconic locations. Go as a counselor, a specialist or a camp coordinator and have the summer of your life.
