Free admission (where do you find THATanymore???) and we got an awesome tour/education from a friendly docent. Seeing the seals and sea lions up close and hearing the rescue stories was great - as was the opportunity to "adopt" a sea lion for my grandson.

This is a great organization. They rescue and care for ill and injured pinnipeds. Go visit them, see the beautiful mammals they are caring for and give money.

The Pacific Marine Mammal Center is one of the coolest sights in Laguna Beach, especially for kids who don't normally get to see marine mammals. The center is staffed by passionate volunteers trying to rehabilitate the many marine mammals that find themselves stranded on So Cal beaches. It is educational, fun and a worthy cause to support.

A volunteer was all too happy to explain how the PMMC works and what the volunteer and professional staff were doing in the various pens holding the sea... More

And they know a LOT about seals, sea lions, elephant seals, etc. When we visited they were caring for more than 20 orphaned baby seals. Four of them were in the outside cages and visible to visitors.
