World Oceans Day
Event has passed.
Celebrate World Oceans Day at the California Academy of Sciences!
World Oceans Day, held every June 8th, is the United Nations-recognized day of ocean celebration and action. People all over our blue planet organize celebrations – which can be a huge event in your community, a special announcement, or anything in between – to support action to protect the ocean. This year, the theme is Healthy oceans, healthy planet, and we’re making a special effort to stop plastic pollution.
Learn what you can do to support healthy oceans at Ocean Acidification: The Power of pH, explore the Steinhart Aquarium, and get a hands-on look at specimens from the ocean in our Naturalist Center.
