Sea Scare and Sea Fair at the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium- Fun and FREE Events

I know it’s only Tuesday but I wanted to share with you two very fun events happening at the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium in San Pedro on Sunday, October 18th and Saturday, October 24th.

Sea Fair is happening on Sunday October 18th from 10am to 4:30pm. Sea Fair offers ocean-related activities for every age, which include; face-painting, an exciting marine life puppet show, and a giant origami demonstration. Adventurous pirates of all ages can join in the search for buried treasure in the “Great Treasure Hunt.” Stop by and chat with more than two dozen marine-related organizations that will be present to share their information and activities with your family.

Sea Scare is happening on Saturday, October 24 from 6pm to 9pm. Have your kiddos come in costume for trick-or-treating throughout the aquarium at six different themed treat stations, or walk along the docks of the “Port Town” scare zone. This is an incredibly fun event and the best part is that it’s FREE. All you have to do is pay for parking! Parking is $1 an hour- bring a few dollars and enjoy the aquarium.

We love the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium. It’s a great place for the kiddos and it’s absolutely free! To read about our experience at the aquarium read here. To learn more about both events head here.
