Get ready for a refreshing day of exploration, ocean views, and hands-on discovery! Join us for a delightful outing that combines a scenic coastal walk with a special visit to the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History.

We’ll begin with a relaxed, easy half-mile stroll through the charming Seabright neighborhood, walking along the cliff-top sidewalks with beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean. If conditions allow, we may even include a short walk on Seabright Beach to enjoy the sounds and smells of the sea.

Our walk will conclude at the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History, where we’ll enjoy a curated, accessible tour of the museum from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. This visit will feature several tactile exhibits, including the popular tide pool exhibit and a large-scale 3D tactile model of the Santa Cruz Mountains—an amazing way to experience the landscape we all call home.

Come enjoy good company, fresh ocean air, and a fascinating museum experience—we hope you’ll join us for this special day out!
