Come with your entire family anytime between 10am and 2pm and play with us.

Wilderness Youth Project’s mission is to foster confidence and a life-long love of learning for young people and families through outdoor experiences and mentoring. We take our participants to creeks, beaches, mountain trails, and open spaces in Santa Barbara. Our core routines include child-centered exploration, awareness, and the building of naturalist skills. Our programs return children to the traditions of childhood: outdoor time, child-centered exploration, skill/self-esteem development and connection with the natural world.
