Visitors feeding the aquarium harbor sealsCome play with the Aquarium's harbor seals! Find out how marine mammal trainers keep these active and intelligent animals entertained, and help them teach the seals new behaviors.

This program is not available in July during molting season. It will resume on August 1.

About the Program

Now you can participate in a play session with these amazing animals. We’ll bring you behind the scenes of the exhibit and you can help us entertain the animals — by tossing them a fish popsicle or giving them a water spray massage. Be sure to bring your camera! Read the trainers' blog posts to get more details about what happens with playtime. Check out this video of playtime on the blog as well.
