Seymour Marine Discovery Center

This discovery center is relatively small but filled with great educational stations, opportunities for hands on experiences and beautiful views upon exiting. I enjoyed my visit because it didn't feel overwhelming. Also, I appreciated that the staff welcomed curious adults like myself to touch animals and get involved without making you feel a kind of way. Great place for family trips, dates and solo exploration. Plus, beautiful area to take pics. I recommend this place hands down!

Blue whale & gray whale skeleton outside. Pretty Oceanside view. We touch live Swell shark skin, live sea stars& otter skin specimen. Starfish takes its time to turn back to its preferred position. Nice walking trails with sea view & surfers enjoy surfing. Fun!

The volunteers and staff are very knowledgeable and friendly! They make a point to engage with every person that walks through the door. You can tell that everyone that is there is passionate about the animals and research that is being done. The facility is very family friendly and has a beautiful view of the ocean. They have interactive tanks where you can touch sharks plus you can watch eels, octopus, and starfish eat!

I loved it, better than expected. There were two whale skeletons outside and an otter skeleton inside! Seal pelts you can touch and a live shark you can stroke. There were starfish with unusual numbers of legs. There was a lobster who recently molted out of his shell. The informational signs were more sciencey than normal, including descriptions of scientific experiments and discoveries, stories about scientists exploring the ocean etc. Nice little gift shop too, not too overpriced. My nephews loved the outing, it got us out of the house on a rainy day.
