Organization Description

The Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History inspires a thirst for discovery and a passion for the natural world. At the Museum, visitors of all ages can enjoy interactive exhibits on natural science, local ecology, and the living world around us. The Sea Center is a small aquarium and marine education facility offers guests hands-on encounters with life from the Santa Barbara Channel. On the Wet Deck, guests experiment like scientists by using oceanographic tools to sample the ocean and examine life below.
