Dive Into New Experiences With Birch Aquarium’s Outdoor Adventure Bundles

It’s time to break out those water shoes and binoculars because Birch Aquarium is taking us on a wild ride beyond their tanks. They’re rolling out some seriously cool Outdoor Adventure Bundles this fall, and you won’t want to miss out on these aquatic escapades.

Sunset Strolls and Tidepool Treasures

Picture yourself strolling along the usually off-limits Scripps Pier as the sun dips below the horizon, learning all about the cutting-edge ocean research happening right under your feet.

Or maybe you’re carefully navigating slippery rocks, discovering bizarre and beautiful creatures in their natural tidepool homes. Sounds cool, right?

These aren’t your average nature walks. The Sunset Scripps Pier Walks let you play scientist for a day. In this 90-minute tour, you’ll be scooping up plankton, peering through microscopes, and even getting hands-on with a squid dissection (sorry, little guy). And for all you shark week fanatics, there’s insider info on local shark research, too.

Not to be outdone, the Tidepooling Adventures promise close encounters with the wild residents of our rocky shores. It’s like a real-life treasure hunt, with Birch Aquarium’s expert guides helping you spot even the most elusive critters.

See you there!

The Pier Walks kick off on August 30, with general tickets now available. Tidepooling Adventures make their splash on November 2, with tickets up for grabs in October.

Here’s the best part—these outdoor adventures come bundled with aquarium admission at a sweet discount. It’s like getting two ocean experiences for the price of… well, less than two!

So, whether you’re a seasoned marine enthusiast or just dipping your toes into the world of ocean exploration, Birch Aquarium’s Outdoor Adventure Bundles are your ticket to an unforgettable aquatic adventure.

See you there, San Diego!
