The Greater Farallones Visitor Center offers educational programs for all ages.
On the weekends, families come together to learn about the special creatures that live in the sanctuary, from microscopic plankton – the base of the food web, to the mighty white shark.
During the school week, students participate in engaging lab activities in the sanctuary’s pier classroom on the San Francisco Bay and indoor explorations of the Visitor Center’s marine life and ecosystem exhibits, and in the multipurpose room, take a virtual dive into Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary an underwater oasis.
Visitor Center education programs offer highly interactive, fun Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and ocean science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning opportunities in an enriching outdoor environment.
