The Seymour Center is proud to offer unique and interactive indoor and outdoor exhibits. Experience the thrill of scientific discovery throughout our Exhibit Hall. You’ll see an octopus, eels, sharks, rockfish and jellies, among other live creatures who inhabit Monterey Bay. You can even touch a swell shark. Don’t worry, they don’t bite!
Discover the science behind the extraordinary natural events we experienced in Santa Cruz County, the solutions available to our community, and how you can help make them happen. Head over to our touch table to get up close and personal with the creatures living beneath the surface.
Wander outside and stroll along the bluffs and through the native landscape, where you’ll discover a gray whale skeleton and life-size elephant seal sculptures. Make sure to circle around and meet Ms. Blue, one of the largest blue whale skeletons on display in the world. Keep your eyes peeled — you may see otters, dolphins, whales, sea lions, seals and birds in the surrounding environment.
