California Academy of Sciences

One of the largest natural history museums in the world, the California Academy of Science boasts a remarkable collection of over 26 million specimens, along with an aquarium, planetarium and a breathtaking indoor rainforest. With free-flying birds swooping overhead in the tropical rainforest and the chance to travel through space in the vast digital dome of the planetarium, the California Academy of Sciences is an educational haven nestled in San Francisco’s verdant Golden Gate Park. Children will be in their element spotting penguins in the African Hall and the Aquarium’s famous albino alligator, while the regular “kids-only” sleepovers offer an unforgettable adventure for children aged 8-17.
