Camp Seafarer for girls and Camp Sea Gull for boys are on the Neuse River in Arapahoe, about 27 miles north of Morehead City and about 25 miles east of New Bern by car. The facilities are coastal YMCA camps with stables, a golf course, swimming and boating areas, as well as an outpost and docks on the Morehead City waterfront.
The camp's focus on strengthening both land and sea skills, but more importantly they emphasize character and skill development. Campers enjoy a nationally recognized seamanship program, including sailing, watersports and ocean excursions from the Morehead City waterfront outpost. The camps conduct environmental education programs that serve schools throughout the state and offer facilities for corporate training and conferences. During the summer, the camps offer weekend and one-week family programs. There are also two-week and three-to-four-week camps for youth. Fall and spring camping programs for families and for kids — both weekend and weeklong — are also available. Contact the camps for details.
