Great for festivals, fairs, and school events!

Touch an animal like a sticky sea anemone, a spiny sea star, or even discover the rough textured skin of a shark! The Aquarium on Wheels brings a local tidepool habitat to venues around Southern California. In addition, our Aquarium educators can lead an exploration of the Pacific Ocean through interactive auditorium and classroom programs for your PreK-12th grade students.
