Enjoy some fun in the sun or some late night fishy business at these local community events. They’re sure to go swimmingly for those that are young at heart.

>> Explore and celebrate Southern California’s Coast at the Urban Ocean Festival on May 3 – 4 at the Aquarium of the Pacific. FCEC will be in attendance at this event, so stop by our booth for a one-on-one conversation about the local fish contamination and some fun with our fish identification game!

>> Dare to touch a bamboo shark? Take advantage of this free opportunity hosted by the Aquarium of the Pacific and try your hand at it during Shark Lagoon Nights on May 9, 16, 23 and 30.

>> The ocean contains 97% of the earth’s water. Learn what needs to be done to keep the fish afloat at the Aquarium of the Pacific on May 13. The Prospects of Humankind in the 21st Century: Keys to a Better Future presentation will explore the health of our planet!

>> On May 18 FCEC will be hosting booths at two fish-tacular events! Come visit us at the Sea Fair at King Harbor Yacht Club or the 22nd Annual Seal Day at Marine Mammal Care Center! We would love to share our knowledge on the local healthy fish to eat and the 5 Do Not Consume (DNC) fish with you.

>> Ready for the weekend? Check out Cabrillo Marine Aquarium’s  Special Grunion Festival on May 30 to hatch grunion eggs and set those fishies free!
