Item Description

Four general admission tickets to the California Academy of Sciences.

Perhaps one of the Bay Area most fascinating family enrichment activities, this museum houses an aquarium, rainforest dome, natural history museum, and planetarium. 

Step inside a living 4-story rainforest, where dripping water sets the beat for a symphony of croaking frogs and chirping birds. Meet chameleons from Madagascar, climb into the tree-tops of Costa Rica to find free-flying birds and butterflies. Finally, descend in a glass elevator into the Amazonian flooded forest, where an acrylic tunnel allows you to walk beneath the catfish and arapaima that swim overhead.

Also part of the museum is Steinhart Aquarium, the Living Collection, home to 38,000 live animals from around the world and representing more than 900 separate species. Come nose-to-beak with an African penguin, watch sharks and stingrays cruise beneath your feet, check out the set of teeth on a piranha, and learn about the critical, life-sustaining role that water plays on Earth.

Exhibits in the planetarium and natural history portions of the musuem offer additional opportunities for science, learning and wonder.
