Malibu Fact Sheet for Campers and Parents
What is Malibu?
Malibu is a Young Life camp 100 miles NW of Vancouver, British Columbia on the Princess Louisa Inlet and is accessible
only by boat or seaplane.
Where is Malibu and how long does it take to get there?
Your area will travel from your hometown to Vancouver, British Columbia; you will take the BC Ferry from Horseshoe
Bay to Langdale Terminal, then up the Sunshine Coast to Egmont, BC. There you will join with campers from other areas
for a three-hour cruise on the Malibu Princess (Young Life’s own passenger boat) to The Malibu Club at the mouth of the
world-renowned Princess Louisa Inlet.

Meals:
The dining experience at Malibu is Awesome! The Sechelt Dining Room has a beautiful ocean view and all meals are
served family style. The food is plentiful so you will not go hungry while at camp, and therefore do not need money for
food unless you would like to have a snack or an ice cream at the Totem Inn (our ice cream parlour). For campers with
doctor prescribed special diets, Food Services will do their very best to provide for you.

How do I send mail to campers?
Letters take 10-14 days to reach Malibu. Packages can take 3-4 weeks. If you are sending a care package ensure that you
write “GIFT” on any customs documentation. If this is not done your camper will have to pay duty on their package
before it will be picked up from the post office for them, which may result in the camper leaving the country before the
package is released from the post office.

Doctors:
There are 2 Doctors that stay the entire week at Malibu with the campers. They are on call throughout the week for
emergencies or at the “Medicine man” ½ hour after breakfast and dinner. They are also at every event throughout the
week should they be needed.
How can I contact my camper in case of emergency?
The Malibu Club is very remote and only accessible by boat or float plane. Due to this remote location there are no
public phones and there is no cell coverage at Malibu. If there is an emergency and you must get a message to your
camper, contact the office at (778) 331-7944 or malibuclub@malibu.younglife.org.
