If you have been dreaming of a weekend away to relax, recharge, and reconnect, this is it.

Women’s Weekend at YMCA Camp Elphinstone returns from May 29 to 31, 2026, offering a unique opportunity to spend time in nature, enjoy classic camp activities, and connect with other amazing women in a welcoming and beautiful setting. Located on 144 acres of oceanfront property on BC’s Sunshine Coast, Camp Elphinstone is the perfect place to step away from the everyday and enjoy a memorable weekend of fun, wellness, and community.

Throughout the weekend, participants will have access to a range of favourite camp activities, including archery, paddling, rock climbing, ropes courses, and more. This spring’s Women’s Weekend will also coincide with the International Day of Action for Women’s Health, and the program will include a variety of wellness-focused workshops on topics such as yoga, skincare, menopausal health, and more.

Your registration also includes healthy, delicious meals prepared by our camp kitchen team, so you can focus on enjoying the experience and taking time for yourself.
