Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History: Sant Oceans Hall The Smithsonian's Sant Ocean Hall educates and inspires visitors of all ages about Earth’s ocean. This exhibition project represents the largest renovation in the Museum’s 100-year history.
By visiting the ocean hall, you can explore the ocean from the sunlit surface to the darkest depths, from prehistory to today, and from the smallest microorganisms to the biggest animals ever known. Throughout the Hall will be exhibits and modules that provide rich educational experiences, including interactives for individual exploration, and areas for self-led and expert-led group lessons.
The ocean is a huge, awesome realm - sometimes mysterious but always amazing. Despite its importance, the ocean remains largely unexplored. Dive in!
