EXHIBITS

We are a 6,000 gallon marine facility with all of our animals collected either by our team or our partners in regulation with our CDFW permits. Currently, we have over 40 species represented.

Through SCUBA diving, snorkeling and fishing , we are able to curate our exhibits with local Catalina fauna. Our collection is constantly evolving as we go on collection dives or fishing trips.

Here are our current exhibits on display.

Rocky Reef

This tank is home to our deeper depth inhabitants, such as rockfish, scorpionfish, and bocaccio.
