Science Programs

Reservations have been filled for the remainder of this academic year. You still have the option to request a Self-Guided educational visit from the website under Self-Guided Field Trips.

Reservations will re-open 1 September 2026 for the 2026 - 2027 academic year.

Onsite science programs are available Monday-Thursday, with two program time slots per day: 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM and 11:15 AM - 12:15 PM (Except intertidal programs based on tide times).

Each hour-long program can accommodate 35 students. If you have more than 35 students, you will need to reserve BOTH time slots for a day. If you have more than 70 students, you will need to request multiple days. For each group of 35 students you will need to fill out a separate reservation form.

Any questions can be sent to cabr_education@nps.gov

Our unique location on the Point Loma peninsula allows for student exploration into many unique and diverse habitats. Our Science Programs give students a glimpse into their connection with the natural world, while challenging their observational and critical thinking skills. Reservations are required.
