Summer is here and, more than ever before, we’re itching to get out and about! If, like us, you’re keen for your kids to have a break that’s jam-packed with fun activities, be sure to take a look at the offerings at Hong Kong Golf & Tennis Academy (HKGTA). The 820,000-square-foot retreat in Sai Kung has just unveiled a Summer Camp bonanza that we’re as excited about as our little ones.
From 30 June through until the end of August, HKGTA will host more than a dozen different camps for children – from toddlers aged 18 months up to young adults of 18 years; and even some for the parents. The camps will take advantage of the Academy’s world-class indoor and outdoor sports and recreational facilities, covering everything from golf, tennis, swimming and water sports, to debating, music, drama and more. Read on for the details...

Designed for ages five and up, and all levels of experience, this five-day, four-night camp is led by world-class musicians, actors, theatre professionals and educators who’ll help kids spread their creative wings.
