School Programs
We are proud to offer a variety of fun and educational programs on the marine environment for schoolchildren of all ages.
Visiting the Aquarium of the Pacific can in itself be a fulfilling educational experience. We encourage you to visit the Aquarium for a free educator pre-visit tour. Due to the space restrictions, there is limited availability for school groups. Advanced reservations are required.
Youth Groups
The Aquarium of the Pacific offers extensive educational programming for our youth audience. In the summer all of our hands-on, engaging science classes are available to add to your field trip experience. With a minimum of 20 students, groups can choose from any of the programs listed in the column on the left. Enhance your field trip experience with one of our grade specific classes. Explore the deep sea, investigate microscopic plankton, dress up as an octopus or even touch a live shark.

The children in this photo visited the Aquarium with TransitPeople, a volunteer group that has chaperoned more than 10,000 Los Angeles school kids on field trips using rail and bus transit. We’re proud that the Aquarium of the Pacific is now the field trip destination requested most often by teachers participating in the TransitPeople program.
