Sugar Bay’s carefully selected staff members come from all over South Africa and the rest of the world. Counselors play a vital role in a camper’s experience at Sugar Bay.

At Sugar Bay they are seen as a leader, role model, big brother/sister and a friend to the children. The counselors’ first priority is to ensure a fun and safe environment for each and every camper. During a camp counselors stay in a cabin with co-counselors and 10 - 12 campers, as our campers are under 24 hour supervision.

During the day counselors run various activities at camp, on the beach and during adventure sessions. In the evening as a counselor you run themed activities for the campers. Counselors work long hours but it is a rewarding opportunity for them to develop and grow their characters.

Counselors need to be vibrant and outgoing with a great spirit and enthusiasm, lots of energy, while being caring, creative, smiling people who enjoy the outdoors, swimming in the sea, playing with kids, camping and having fun. It is imperative that you can speak English. You must be a competent swimmer and enjoy the sea as many activities take place in and around water.

In return as a part of the Sugar Bay team you will develop qualities such as responsibility, leadership, communication, teamwork, patience, adaptability and much, much more.
