Both of our centers include fun for all ages. The Discovery Center features the convergence of science, art, and technology with interactive exhibits, plus a gift shop and the largest killer whale skeleton in the world! The Crow’s Nest is perched on a cliff along the Coastal Trail and is full of natural history, an aquarium tide pool with live creatures, and a great deck for whale watching. It’s a short walk between the two! So we encourage you to visit both while you are in Fort Bragg. 

Book a tour before you visit and check out our calendar for special events, talks, and workshops.
