Planetarium shows extra fee in addition to admission.
Located in a scenic park overlooking San Francisco Bay. Museum has interactive exhibits, live native animals, gardens, picnic facilities, trails, and views. It is a very popular field trip site for schools, so it's best to call first and make sure there aren't ten field trips scheduled at low tide, or your children won't find any wildlife left except the very friendly squirrels. Crab Cove is a marine reserve for mudflat and tidal pool marine animals. The Visitor Center's Old Wharf Classroom has models of shoreline animals and a small aquarium to explain what you will find in the mudflats.
