Point Reyes National Seashore Association is happy to partner with the California Academy of Sciences to offer Behind-the-Scene Tour passes plus general admission tickets for up to four guests.  

The California Academy of Science’s mission—to explore, explain and sustain life—extends to all corners of the institution, making it much more than a museum. It’s as if the new Academy brings the whole universe under one roof: an aquarium, a planetarium, a natural history museum and more! The 412,000 square foot building is not only physically impressive, but it just may be the greenest museum on the planet, with a 2 ½ acre Living Roof, an expansive solar canopy, an extensive water reclamation system, and walls insulated with recycled blue jeans. Home to nearly 40,000 animals, a four-story living rainforest, and an albino alligator named Claude, the Academy has enough to keep one entertained and surprised for a lifetime...and beyond.

The Academy's exclusive Behind-the-Scenes tours give you and 3 friends the opportunity to dive deeper into the Academy and come face-to-face with its comprehensive commitment to science, research, education, and conservation both within the exhibits and beyond the walls. Explore the Academy from an insider's perspective and spend an hour behind the scenes learning more about the institution's 159-year history and how its scientists are tackling critical questions about life on Earth. Visit the research collections and a working laboratory, get closer to the living roof, and see breathtaking geology specimens in the vault.

Grab the kids or the nature lover in your life for a wild day at the museum. Bid today!
