This museum is more a display of information than physical exhibits but still worth a short visit. The views of the bay/estuary alone make a visit here worthwhile. Be sure to hike up the rocky peak immediately adjacent to the museum. Be on the lookout for blue heron in the area. We enjoyed the virtual reality experience—three different short films seen through a VR headset.
My 7 year old loves this place. We are visiting and we have visited multiple times. Very hands on learning and great informative information. Beautifully views of mirror rock and the bay. 3.00 for adults entrance fee.
What a cool hidden gem! I had only recently heard about this place, so we decided to go. I'm glad we did! This is a great place for kids to learn about nature and local history. They give the kids a pamphlet to fill out as they come across different things in the exhibits. Once they finish filling it out, they can turn it on for a cool sticker. The panoramic views of the bay are amazing! It's a really fun learning adventure for the whole family!
This was an interesting and interactive museum highlighting the geology and fauna of Morro Bay. A bit more oriented for kids, but the views were amazing. Only $3 for adults.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$1–5
Much larger than it looks from the outside! $3 entry. Lots of interactive exhibits great for adults and kids. Realistic replicas of local wildlife. Plus there's lots to do to keep the kids entertained. Enter through a small gift shop with typical CA State Park souvenirs.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$1–5
Small but beautiful museum. I only had under an hour to visit before closing and it was worth a visit. Very affordable entrance fee of $3 in May '22. Wish I had my kids with me, they would have loved seeing all the birds and doing the hands on activities. Neat to see the wildlife examples of what you could find in this area. The current WWII exhibit was fascinating and informative. I loved the honest narrative and learning about the time period and what was happening in the area. Neat to see how the bay was used in naval training as well. Helpful and friendly staff and cute gift shop. Staff had great recommendations for other things to do in the area, and were kind with me being there at closing time. Nice little stop with a lovely walk up the hill next door after for some phenomenal views.
Currently, the museum is closed due to emergency construction inside the museum, so you can't see the inside, but it's possible to look around. The surrounding scenery is excellent, not to say, so I always recommend it.Visited onWeekday
