Best Science Museum I have ever been too. The aquarium had so many species to look at and it covered the whole bottom floor of the facility. They had a rainforest environment with birds, butterflies, amphibians and many other species to look at and learn about. In addition to their species they offer education in art, earthquakes, weather, the planets and more. They have so much to offer! It was a great experience. I took my 5 and 6 year old with me and even they had a great time and can't wait to go again!

One of the best science museum I've been to. They have albino crocodile. Beautiful building with large open space. It's a must if you are in SF.

WOW

This place is absolutely amazing. There are lots of things, and the aquarium is amazing. The jungle thing in the middle is great, and I would love to go back someday. Very clean area, simple ticket checkout.

DETAILS
General Info
Come nose-to-beak with penguins and parrots, watch sharks and sting rays cruise beneath your feet, and feel the spray of the California coast. Fly to Mars (and beyond the Milky Way!) from the safety of your planetarium seat, take a virtual safari in African Hall, or climb into the canopy of a living rainforest. Face your fears-and an albino alligator-inside the Swamp, and meet scientists as they return from research expeditions around the world. From the depths of a Philippine coral reef to the outer reaches of the Universe, it's all inside the California Academy of Sciences. Daily interactions with animals, educators, and biologists within immersive, hands-on exhibits offer discovery and wonder for guests of all ages. The Academy will inspire lifelong curiosity and appreciation for the natural world. On view: HABITAT EARTH: Opens Jan 16, 2015 Discover what it means to live in todays connected world, where biological networks intersect with those we have built. In this new planetarium show, dive below the oceans surface, dig beneath the forest floor, and journey to new heights to witness the intricate intersection between human and ecological networks. EARTHQUAKE:Prepare to be moved! Experience a high-magnitude jolt in our earthquake simulator and explore the impacts of the largest disaster in San Francisco's history-the 1906 earthquake and fire. Along the way, you'll see how earthquakes fit into the larger story of plate tectonics, a constant process that builds mountains, moves continents, and creates the landscape in which life evolves. Visit the website for more information on special exhibits and daily programs.
