Seacoast Science Center is inspiring conservation of our Blue Planet. Through programs, exhibits, marine mammal rescue, and interpretation of Odiorne Point State Park, we teach people of all ages about why a ocean health matters. We educate to motivate. Because ocean health impacts our daily lives, our goal is to inspire all people to make every day choices that will have a positive impact on the health of the ocean.

SSC has been connecting people to the wonders of our coast since 1992. Our live animal exhibits feature the amazing creatures that live in the rapidly changing Gulf of Maine ecosystem, from whales to snails. Our engaging programs make learning about the ocean fun for everyone, from pre-K to grey. Our hands-on science exhibits, from undersea exploration to marine debris, motivate families to become caretakers of our blue planet.

We are the home of the SSC Marine Mammal Rescue Team, responding to marine mammals along the New Hampshire and northern Massachusetts coast. Our rescue work creates coastal communities that are safe for both people and seals. Each seal-side conversation is an opportunity to educate people about the animals and their coastal ocean habitat. One of just 100 federally authorized response organizations, our rescue work contributes critical data for research on the status of these protected species, considered the early warning system for ocean health.

We hold highly valued community events throughout the year from Music-by-the-Sea concerts to Sippin’ for Seals. Each reaches a different audience, yet all combine to reinforce our belief that a healthy ocean drives our quality of life today and will drive quality of life for future generations.

We envision an abundant, sustainable, healthy world ocean. To achieve that end, we are building a blue community in which everyone is an ocean steward who cares for the future of the sea.
