I love it. We were unavailable to see the forest part because it closes at 7:30 so I recommend you see it before. We almost missed the aquarium on the bottom floor but I love it

The Academy of Sciences was a great place to visit especially very enjoyable for my two boys who are 8 and 11. This was their first time visit to the Academy of Science. It had their attention and curiosity on all the exhibits.

It's an excellent venue to spend a fun and educative day for the kids. The road side parking was easy and free. The center packages the learning experience in such an enjoyable yet informative way.

Aquarium of the Bay

Aquarium of the Bay is located at San Francisco's popular PIER 39. Its focus, as the name suggests, is local aquatic animals from the San Francisco Bay (and nearby waterways). There are three main exhibit areas, each with a specific point of focus. The most thrilling is the underwater tunnel, though the touch pools and naturalist talks also help make this an exciting and interactive way to get to know the bay.
