San Diego Natural History Museum

Admit One to San Diego Natural History Museum Included general admission including giant-screen films with the Go San Diego Card

San Diego Natural History Museum One-hundred-thirty-three-years young, the San Diego Natural History Museum offers exciting, colorful, and interactive exhibitions. Focused on the southern California and Baja California region, these exhibitions combine contemporary science with multimedia art to deliver relevant take-home messages about the Earth’s past, present and future. Your family will enjoy a “spend the whole day” museum experience viewing major exhibitions, fine-art photography galleries, and giant-screen films shown every hour–all included in the price of admission. Visit the website, www.sdnhm.org, to see the film schedule and learn more about the Museum’s first permanent exhibition, Fossil Mysteries, which uncovers secrets of 75 million years of this region–from dinosaurs to mastodons. Located in beautiful Balboa Park, this Museum is a flagship cultural institution of San Diego and is surely not to be missed.
