Celebrating 30 years of the Open Sea galleries means more than just looking back—it’s about the massive wave of innovation and conservation that started right here in Monterey. 

For three decades, we’ve pushed the boundaries of what’s possible, from developing cutting-edge technology to replicate deep-sea environments to caring for pelagic giants like Mola mola and green sea turtles. 

The science we've gathered from these incredible animals hasn't just stayed within our walls; it has fueled global policy changes. Whether it’s driving the recovery of the Pacific bluefin tuna or tackling plastic pollution, your visit helps us protect the one ocean we all share.

Join us in celebrating 30 years of wonder and global ocean conservation. 🌊✨There is wonder in ocean life and caring for it helps us all.
