Skouras Sports & Language Camp is

located in the village of Nees Fokies in

Chalkidiki, one of the most famous

summer resorts in Northern Greece. The

camp has been operating since 1986

and thousands of children have had so

far, a unique lifetime experience visit-

ing us. We offer unforgettable summer

holidays to children and teens aged 6

to 17, combining education,sports and

entertainment in a very well organised

programme that includes many daily ac-

tivities, games and sports that kids

enjoy. And all that in an area full of

sunshine, crystal waters (5 min. walk to

the beach) in the middle of a forest of

pine-trees.

VisionWe strongly believe that the camp is not just a summer holiday: Our goal is

to offer children days of joy in a beautiful natural environment. Through

team work, games and the daily programme we have created a small, struc-

tured and organised society. While playing and having fun, children learn

to: respect and accept diversity, believe in equality and to work in teams.

Our programme aims to develop both body and spirit through sports, enter-

tainment and education.
