Natural History
Explore the natural history of San Francisco Bay from the marine creatures
that live beneath us to the compelling human stories of conservation
pioneers, like Ansel Adams and John Muir. Learn how San Francisco Bay's
unusual geologic and weather conditions have produced a unique ecosystem.
Scan the horizon for California Sea Lions, Bay Porpoise, Sevengill
Cowsharks, Brown Pelicans, and other creatures of the Bay. Discover how
native and non-native plants, animals (like the Parrots of Telegraph Hill)
and people co-exist together and create the diverse environment we call
home.

natural disasters, politics and the people of the Bay Area have changed
this incredible landscape. You will witness the construction of the new
Eastern Span of the Bay Bridge, learn how the renaissance of San
Francisco's Ferry Building and the building of San Francisco Giants Ball
Park revitalized an entire area of town, and discover how San Francisco
Bay's world famous bridges, islands, and skyline architecture like Coit
Tower and the Transamerica Building, were born from madness, vision,
passion and perseverance.
Native American Culture

tribes like the Ohlone and the Miwok. Imagine those who first sailed these
majestic waters in Tule Canoes, walked these rugged lands, and honored the
sacred beauty of this region. Experience the culture, history, and sounds
of San Francisco Bay as you travel in a sacred time following the story of
a Native American family from the past. Discover how landmarks like Yerba
Buena Island and Alcatraz Island have played a part in the rich history of
