Some science camps begin offering summer-related special sessions, workshops, reunions and other special programs as early as March. Dates, availability, and program details can vary by camp.
Many of our Science Camps are still adding to their info on their 2026 Summer Camps, Programs, Activities & Classes.

New science summer camps from all around the US and Canada are being added every day.
2026 Science Camp Scholarships and Financial Aid Info: New for 2026 our Best Science Camps Directory will also include information on Science Camp Scholarships, Camperships, and other forms of financial aid to summer campers. Look for this info within each camp's directory listing.
Choosing the Best Science Camp comes down to zooming in on the answers to some specific questions, such as: What science(s) will be included in the camp curriculum, how 'deep' will the instruction go, and will there be any 'hands on' experiments?
Be sure to ask each camp you interview just how intenese the science programs is, as many camps offer science more as a recreational option.
There are some great 'immersion' summer science camp programs where campers build complete robots, explore the geology of the Grand Canyon, launch their own rockets, create iPhone aps and websites, and much more.
Many summer science camps are housed on the campuses of major universities and have access to incredible high-tech science faculty and facilities.
