The Spectacular California Academy of Sciences is reopening to members and donors (at 25% capacity) on Tuesday, October 13. The Academy will open to the public on Friday, October 23. We’re very excited to visit T-Rex again and check out their new exhibits.
California Academy’s Covid-19 Changes – what’s open, what’s not
- Closures of some exhibits (Planetarium, Curiosity Grove, and Discovery Tidepool.) Hands-on exhibits will be modified.
- Entry into the Rainforest and will be by reservation only for distancing. Upon arrival, request a QR code to make a reservation.
- Outdoor dining space will be available and food will be available for purchase.
- There will one-way paths through areas like the Amazon Flooded Forest Tunnel and Academy Store.

Our 3 year old loves the frogs and butterflies in the rainforest and the big wall of fish in the aquarium. Plus the alligator. He also loves to snack in the glass tunnel at the aquarium entrance. Plan for two hours, skip store, street parking, and bring own food.
