At Surval Summer Camp, Fridays are more than just the start of the weekend—they’re an invitation to embrace the breathtaking beauty of our surroundings with our much-loved Lake Day. ๐ŸŒŠโœจ Each week, the whole school heads down to the stunning shores of Lake Geneva for an unforgettable day of watersports, adventure, and relaxation. โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿšค

With the majestic Alps and lush vineyards as our backdrop, girls dive into a variety of exciting activities. From paddleboarding ๐Ÿ„‍โ™€๏ธ across the crystal-clear waters to the thrill of banana boat rides ๐Ÿšค, every moment on the lake is filled with energy and fun. Whether it's swimming ๐ŸŠ‍โ™€๏ธ in the lake or pool, wakeboarding ๐ŸŒŠ, or simply enjoying a boat ride, soaking in the serene views, there’s something for everyone.
Beyond our weekly Lake Days, students also have the opportunity to explore a world of watersports, including canyoning ๐Ÿž๏ธ through breathtaking mountain rivers, indoor surfing ๐Ÿ„, or setting sail with our sailing โ›ต sessions. These experiences not only build confidence and skills but also create unforgettable memories in one of the most beautiful locations in the world.
