Club Lorne Outdoor Education Camp is an exciting concept in group accommodation and school camps.

We operate from Lorne Surf Life Saving club located on the Lorne Foreshore Reserve. We also enjoy stunning views of pristine Loutit Bay with Airleys Inlet Lighthouse in the distance and only a short walk to Lorne Pier.

Special interest groups, primary, secondary and tertiary year level groups can now enjoy the unique experience of a camp where the breaking waves create a breathtaking backdrop by day and a soothing atmosphere to fall asleep to by night.

Camp Director Phil Sutton has 25+ years experience as a PE/Outdoor Education teacher and has been a member of Lorne S.L.S.C over 35 years. Qualifications include B-ED PE/Outdoor Ed, Surf Bronze Instructors, Advanced Lifeguard Certificate, Advanced Resuscitation Certificate, Patrol Captain, I.R.B Captain, Wilderness 1st Aid Certificate, Level 2 Climbing instructors and Basic Paddling Skills Instructors.
