Scouts BSA Summer Resident Camp at
Camp Fiesta Island, on beautiful Mission Bay
Spend a week of Scouting adventure on the beach! 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 motorboat and stand-up paddle board.
Along with our traditional popular merit badge and first year "Mariner" programs, the CFI summer camp experience will feature exciting activities for Scouts of all ages. Pack your swimsuit and sunscreen for a great summer camp!

Try Survivor CFI Style!
Our Nautical Survival program combines the best of Scouting's outdoor tactics. Start with the popular Wilderness Survival merit badge, toss in a simulated "shipwreck", add lifesaving skills, and build your own raft to escape the island!
Open Program Day!
The Open Program Day gives Scouts a break from the regular class schedule with opportunities to experience the open activities at the waterfront, craft area, and several 1/2 day additional merit badges. There is also the opportunity to get off the island and visit local San Diego attractions such as the San Diego Zoo, Sea World, USS Midway, or go on a chartered deep sea fishing boat excursion, and more!
Extend Your Stay in San Diego?
Extend your adventure with our new "Camp San Diego" option! Pitch your tents at our 15-acre Camp Balboa, next door to the world famous San Diego Zoo. You can add days before or after your Fiesta Island week to enjoy the Zoo, Sea World, a Padres game at Petco Park, the USS Midway aircraft carrier and more!
If your troop is interested in this additional program, please contact our camping department ASAP (phone and email below).

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), 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 participate as a provisional Scout. Scouts will be paired with a host troop depending on registrations. It is an excellent 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.
Monday Check-ins
Monday check ins (at 7 am) are available.
