Ionian Village is more than just a summer camp.

It's the official summer camping ministry of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, where campers and staff embark on a unique journey to deepen their understanding of Orthodox Faith and Hellenic Culture. At Ionian Village, they also have the incredible opportunity to connect with like-minded peers from all corners of the country. Teens and young adults create unforgettable memories during their time here, forming bonds and friendships that endure a lifetime.

Since 1970, more than 20,000 campers have become part of a 53-year-old tradition dedicated to building "Faith and friendships that last a lifetime."

Ionian village is Beautiful

Nestled along the stunning Ionian Sea coast in western Peloponnese, Greece, our campsite is a picturesque haven. Our accommodations include white-washed cabins and bungalows that can host up to 200 campers and 50 staff members. Every aspect of our camp was carefully designed to foster an Orthodox Christian community and offer a genuine Greek village experience for all participants.

What Are You Waiting For? Come and Join Us!

Ionian Village is like nothing you have ever experienced. Our campers and Staff come not only to understand their Orthodox Faith and Hellenic Culture in a more realistic and tangible way but also to meet and interact with other young people just like them from all over the country. Through this interaction, their eyes are opened as to what the reality of being an Orthodox Christian in this world truly should be; to be people who live Christ-centered lives, to be people of love.
