It’s summer in Miami and you know what that means– lots of sand, sunshine and summer break for the kids. Not all parents are equipped to entertain their child or children 24/7 during summer break, so enter the summer camp.

Summer camp for kids have evolved from games in a crowded gymnasium to academically enriching adventures for kids of school age and even some younger.

Working parents will feel at ease knowing that their children are enjoying Monday through Friday with their friends, working on developing their skills whether it is within a sports or STEM arena. At the end of every day they are sent home feeling excited, exhausted and enriched.

We get it, there are good camps and then there are great camps. So, we have compiled some of the best reviewed and rated Miami Beach summer camps and north Miami Beach summer camps to filter out the mediocre and give you the best of the best for your sweet campers.
