Program Overview

Travel throughout the United States with Westcoast Connection, home of our first teen travel program 36 summers ago. We offer a wide range of 10-40 day summer programs on our teen tours, pre-college enrichment, baseball, Seventeen fashion, and community service. Our mission is to provide you with the summer of a lifetime.

Travel the full stretch of California from San Francisco to San Diego, catch a foul ball on the ultimate baseball fantasy tour, featuring MLB baseball games in the Midwest, or get exclusive access to the top editors of Seventeen on our NYC fashion experience. Maybe you prefer to learn more about your favorite subjects at UCLA and visit world-renowned universities on a college preview week in Boston. Join the American Red Cross, hurricane relief efforts, or local communities on service projects as you influence the neighborhoods and environments you visit.

Explore the U.S. with Westcoast Connection, and it just might change your life!
