During the summer camp, Bahamian students learn first-hand from maritime industry experts, and participate in lessons on navigation and engineering, and workshops, such as nautical rope tying.

“Before coming to this camp, I didn’t know about maritime life. I thought it was only in some countries. Now I know, and I want to be in a white-on-white cadet suit in the future,” said Dakarai.

Campers are learning more about potential careers at sea at the LJM Maritime Academy summer camp.
“Introducing students this young to the maritime industry, even to a skill like rope tying, is a good introduction to the maritime field,” said Nameiko Miller, registrar, LJM Maritime Academy. “We are grateful for Disney Cruise Line’s continued support. This year, we doubled our total number of campers. I don’t think we could have accomplished that without their support,” said Miller.
Disney Cruise Line is committed to creating a lasting, positive impact in its port communities and is proud to support the LJM Maritime Academy summer camp to inspire the next generation of maritime leaders.
“We want young Bahamians to explore careers at sea and picture themselves in these leadership roles aboard our ships,” said Joey Gaskins, regional director, public affairs, Disney Cruise Line. “As our fleet grows, we want them to see the variety of exciting opportunities available to them.”
In addition to supporting the LJM Maritime Academy summer camp which helps inspire the next generation of Bahamian Maritime Leaders, Disney Cruise Line has sponsored the LJM Maritime Academy cadet scholarships for young adults aspiring to become ship captains and shipboard leaders.
