Octopus Encounters

Go behind the scenes and shake hands, or rather suckers, with a Giant Pacific Octopus! Includes interaction and learning about the animal’s behavior. Guided by the Museum’s Senior Aquarist, this is an extraordinary experience of a true wonder of nature. Cost is $500 for a group of up to 4. Octopus encounters are by appointment only.
