About Sugar Bay
Nestled between the sugar cane farms of the KZN North Coast, Sugar Bay is located on a 16-acre private resort, designed exclusively for children and teens between the ages of 7 and 17. The resort was built specifically for camp with a wooded background and amazing views from the cabins. Sugar Bay now accommodates up to 200 children at any one time.

Background Sugar Bay opened its doors in July 2001 and, over the past 10 years, has touched the lives of over 40 000 children, both local and international.
Sugar Bay came about as a result of a dream that founding director Zoë Ellender had of combining her passion for children, outdoor sports, sunshine and holidays to create South Africa’s first Summer Camp.. |

Sugar Bay is the first and only camp of its kind in South Africa and it is based on the successful American Summer Camp philosophy of children spending a holiday away from parents, enjoying nature;and having the opportunity to be kids again while meeting hundreds of like-minded children in a safe, fun-filled environment. When children are in a happy, comfortable and fun environment they become more confident and independent. Sugar Bay promotes this growth through the use of our superb facilities, qualified and dedicated staff and a total commitment to the ultimate, fun-filled, never to be forgotten holiday experience. |

Philosophy A holiday at Sugar bay is all about having fun! The words; “I’m Bored” are never heard at camp and the saying 'What we learn in fun, we never forget' rings true to Sugar Bay and it's philosophy towards teaching the youth of today.
