Scouts, Youth Groups, and Nonprofits

Scout Days

In addition to group rates for field trip groups, we also offer Scout Days. On Scout Day, scouts and their families can visit the any time 10 a.m.-5 p.m. to receive discounted admission. Scouts and their families can also complete a complimentary scavenger hunt and purchase a Junior Marine Biologist patch.

*COVID-19 Policy: We are continuously monitoring new information from the CDC and adhering to appropriate guidelines. As a result, the dates shown below are subject to change. We currently require all visitors to wear face coverings. The floor is marked to help guests monitor their social distancing and hand sanitizing stations are located throughout the aquarium.

Members of any scouting organization can attend and receive the discounted rates regardless of whether they attend as an individual, family, or troop. Scout day pricing and patches are only available on Scout Day; if your troop wants to attend as a group on another date, you may be eligible for field trip (see below).

GROUP OUTINGS AND FIELD TRIPS

You don’t have to visit with a school to enjoy a fun, educational outing at a discount! Any youth-based group who meets our field trip eligibility requirements is welcome to attend as a field trip group. By attending as a field trip group, you not only receive discounted admission and free chaperones, but you also gain access to educational programming. Our field trip programs include behind-the-scenes tours and special classes. Learn more about field trip eligibility and programming here.

Some groups, such as non-profits, may also be eligible to receive field trip funding through our Fish Friends Scholarship.
