Get ready to embark on an exhilarating journey to the North Shore of Oahu, where YMCA's Camp Erdman awaits.

Nestled between the North Shore mountains and picturesque beaches, Camp Erdman has been the backbone of Oahu’s communities, empowering the youth for almost a century. Its continued endeavors aim to provide safe and stimulating programs, and cultural and environmental educational opportunities for local children and visitors alike.

On this adventure you will hike and learn about the history of the 20-acre YMCA Camp Erdman site, participate in Camp Erdman’s efforts to restore and preserve the environment by planting trees or removing invasive plants. By the end of the hike, you’ll have stirred up an appetite and our Camp Erdman team will have ready and waiting your choice of a hot or cold lunch enjoyed at the exclusive beach access only for guests on this tour. And that's not all!
