“We love our Community! We love our Museum!” We are inviting everyone to a “Free Weekend” at The Whale Museum. All admission fees will be waived during the weekend which will run from February 13 through February 16, daily hours 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. We encourage you to bring your family and friends to enjoy a tour of the updated Exhibit Hall. Self-Guided Tour Maps will be available to help you navigate through areas of interest. We want to get our community and our Museum together! We hope you will join us during the “Free Weekend.”
The Whale Museum is located in Friday Harbor at 62 First St. N. Founded in 1976, The Whale Museum’s mission is to promote stewardship of whales and the Salish Sea ecosystem through education and research. In addition to providing exhibits, the Museum also provides programs including the Marine Naturalist Training, Orca Adoption Program, SeaSound Acoustics Program, Soundwatch, San Juan County Marine Mammal Stranding Network, and the Whale Hotline.
