Pirates of Pupukea

Return of the Shipwrecked

Camp Pupukea Oahu
September 2527, 2026

Ahoy, Scouts!

The storm may have scattered our fleet last spring, but every seasoned sailor knows that one rough voyage never ends the adventure. The crew regathers this fall as Pirates of Pupukea returns for an even grander expedition across the legendary cliffs of Camp Pupukea!

Whether your patrol was preparing to claim buried treasure before the weather rolled in or you're joining the voyage for the very first time, now is your chance to prove your crew's courage, teamwork, and Scouting skills.

The charts have been redrawn.
The treasure remains hidden.
The adventure awaits!

Pirate Challenges Await

Your patrol will sail from port to port tackling pirate-themed adventures that put your Scouting knowledge to the test.

• Navigate by compass and stars across uncharted waters.
• Lash together your ship's rigging through pioneering challenges.
• Rescue your shipmate during the "Man Overboard" relay.
• Crack secret pirate codes using signaling and communication skills.
• Follow maps, clues, and puzzles in search of long-lost treasure.

Every challenge earns points toward Camporee honors, so bring your strongest sailors, sharpest navigators, and most spirited crew!
