The facility was small but my kids had fun. It wasn't crowded and was great on a hot day. Very breezy on the lookout and we learned a lot about our native species. My littles loved the fish and the birds were very cool to see. Plenty of parking with a shuttle from the parking lot. The driver helped us with our stroller and was very nice. They only have snack there so I would suggest bringing a picnic and having it at one of the many tables there. Nonetheless we had a great time!

Incredible time at the Living Coast Discovery Center in Chula Vista! So many animals including bald and golden eagles, leopard sharks, manta rays, hawks, owls, lizards, turtles, raccoons, insects and more. The staff is very friendly, helpful and informative. Compared to other zoos and aquariums I haven’t seen a staff as interactive as here. Nice gift shop with lots of toys, books, clothes, and more. You park to the side and the shuttle system takes you to the location, we never waited more than 10 minutes for a shuttle. It was $22 per adult. Recommend!

This was an awesome find. It is a really cool visitor's center with lots of educational programs and an awesome place for a homeschool field trip. We will definitely come back next time we are in the area.

Great 21+ social event was held last Friday. We had such a great time 😊 Lots of fun interactive things to do and so many cool companies were there to share what they do locally

had such a wonderful experience at Living Coast Discovery Center! This place is perfect for families and such a hidden gem right on the bay. The location was especially convenient for us since we were staying at Sun Outdoors San Diego Bay, and the kids were able to easily walk over and spend time exploring all the amazing wildlife and marine life exhibits.
