California Academy of Sciences highlights
When you visit this museum, you can explore natural history with 4 primary attractions. First, the Kimball Natural History Museum showcases a variety of fascinating exhibits, including one that specifically studies the influence that colour has on animal behaviour. Another popular exhibit focuses on the giants of nature, from ancient redwoods to whales.
In addition to the natural history museum, you can also visit the Morrison Planetarium, which is completely digital with a 75-foot screen. The Steinhart Aquarium is home to several African penguins, and the rainforest exhibit will make you feel like you're actually there with native plants all around.

Good to know when visiting the California Academy of Sciences
While the center's exhibits are split into 4 different sections, the natural history museum makes up the bulk of the space, and it's where you'll spend most of your time. Be sure to plan your visit accordingly if you want to explore everything the museum has to offer.
If you're looking for a more adult-oriented kind of experience, the museum is open late nearly every Thursday night and offers live DJ music and cocktails in a science-themed 21+ party. Numerous exhibits will still be available during these late-night events, including the planetarium.
