School-Aged Programs & Tours

Make your curriculum come alive!

Take a field trip to The Marine Mammal Center in the Marin Headlands, to PIER 39 in San Francisco, or let us bring a “field trip” to your classroom with the Whale Bus! See the details for each option by clicking on one of the pictures below. Reservation request forms are available at each section.

All presentations include hands-on activities and exploration of specimens.  They support the California Science Standards, and are adapted to your group’s age/grade level.

At the Center

The Marine Mammal Center is a wonderful field trip destination for schools and organized community groups such as scouts, camps, and after-school programs.

Whale Bus Outreach

The Whale Bus is a van that travels to your site, transforming your classroom into a marine mammal museum with real specimens such as bones, pelts, and baleen.
