ABOUT CABRILLO MARINE AQUARIUM
Since 1935, Cabrillo Marine Aquarium has been THE place to learn about Southern California marine life. Located within the bustling Port of Los Angeles, the Aquarium offers a unique juxtaposition between commerce and nature–where huge cargo ships and whales traverse the same channels and the surrounding Coastal Park offers opportunities to visit tidepools, a sandy beach and a salt marsh. This Frank-Gehry designed Aquarium is free, with donations requested, but never required. It remains one of the top field trip destinations in Los Angeles County, with more than half of its 220,000 annual visitors arriving on field trip buses. One of its signature programs takes visitors out on the moonlit beach to watch thousands of silvery grunion fish hurl themselves up on the sand for a strange but fascinating mating ritual.

Friends of Cabrillo Marine Aquarium is grateful for their event sponsors: Port of Los Angeles, Port of Long Beach, the Crail-Johnson Foundation, and the Roth Family Foundation.

Trip Leader: John Butta. I may not show up until about 9:30-10 pm. Questions: 213-200-7843
