Sample Schedule

This week-long residential program for rising 9th through 12th-grade students is designed to be an active, outdoors, hands-on program. Students will participate in a variety of activities as they learn about Alabama’s marine environment, animals, and plants. A “must” for students who love the marine environment and are looking for a fun summer activity. Campers will take a trip aboard the DISL’s research vessel, kayak local waters, seine along the beaches, learn about Alabama’s coastal habitats, and so much more.

Program Cost: The total cost of this program is $700 and includes tuition, room, meals, and lab fees.

The $100 registration fee is part of the program cost and is non-refundable.

The next payment of $100 is due when the camp release forms are returned. A balance of $500 is due two weeks prior to check-in.

Tuition (but not registration) payments are refundable if notice of withdrawal is communicated to the DHP Registrar (in writing) at least two weeks prior to the first day of camp AND we are able to fill your camper’s spot from our waitlist.

Registration Information: Space is limited. Please complete the online registration form (link above). Once your registration has been processed and it is determined there is space in the session, you will receive a follow-up email from the DHP registrar with payment instructions. Space will be held for one week to allow payment of the $100 non-refundable registration fee to secure your camper’s space in this program.

Camper handbooks will be e-mailed to parents after May 1, 2025. ALL forms located in the handbook (6 total) should be mailed in with your initial $100 tuition payment by the date indicated in the handbook email.

The Dauphin Island Sea Lab reserves the right to cancel the program in the event enrollment is inadequate. Noncompliance with the rules of the program results in expulsion and forfeiture of the program cost.
