    We love to hike the lagoon with our family and dog. It's always a different experience each time we go. Great bird viewing as well. If you are a runner, the trail is perfect!  more »

    Piper is so happy and adorable. Great educational experience with happy animals. I recommend this place to everyone especially with children. My only suggestion is more advertising. We are staying at Carlsbad Village Inn. There are many families with young children staying here looking for new experiences. You should advertise here. Thanks.

    Happened upon the place after stopping by the beach. Very friendly staff who were very knowledgeable about the animals in their nature center. The kids loved being able to feed the small pig that they have there, Piper. For $2 you get a small baggie of veggies to feed the pig. Their Yellow Umbrella bird, Baby bird, was entertaining and fun to watch. Would definitely recommend the place to families with early elementary school kids.
