Volunteered at The MMC for a year. Brought Jacob one night to help out he then brought his younger brother. We had fun. Learning and caring. More volunteers are needed.

Fun to do the behind the scenes tour, the place does great work thanks to so many dedicated volunteers. Don’t expect to spend the whole day though, maybe 2 hours if you do behind the scenes and then just watch the animals for a while.

An impactful, incredible, and interactive experience. Knowledgeable and friendly volunteers add to the extensive exhibits. Optional classes and guides deepen the impact of the viewing opportunity. Both heart wrenching and heart warming. Highly recommended.

The Marine Mammal Center is an amazing place to visit to see how these precious animals are cared for by a variety of medical specialists, staff and volunteers. Their facility is built in an old Nike ... read more
