Camp Quest
Camp Quest seeks to provide a safe, secure and supportive environment for children aged 8 to 12 to learn about the natural world around them and gain an appreciation of the importance of nature and its various ecosystems. This learning is achieved through a wide range of fun, adventure-based learning outcomes and will provide participants with a unique and memorable experience.
Quest’s adventure activities are incorporated into all aspects of the camp and in between the practical eco learning sessions, camp participants will be engaged in group adventures and personal challenges.
Quest, an outdoor adventure facility set on 7-acres of private beachfront land within Laguna Phuket, offers a unique environment for an adventure-driven camp and has all the facilities and amenities on hand to ensure a truly memorable experience.
