The Hotel del Coronado in San Diego recently debuted its Ocean Explorers program for ages 5-12.  This is an immersive and unique living classroom, with experiences designed to help your children learn about preserving the ocean and all of its amazing marine life. Classroom lesson themes include ocean science, seashells, tidepools, sharks, ocean preservation, and even a Beach Olympics, and are designed to stoke creativity, curiosity, and imagination.  The facility offers a spectacular underwater world, filled with amazing sea creatures, creative activities, one-of-a-kind adventures, an underwater aquarium with an interactive touch tank, and more. Both half-day and full-day sessions are offered along with special evening experiences on Fridays and Saturdays with dinner.  The resort’s history with ocean studies dates back to 1903 when it offered its boathouse to a visionary biologist whose research attracted publisher E.W. Scripps who helped form the Marine Biological Association of San Diego.  Soon this became the famous Scripps Institution of Oceanography in 1905.
