Review & FAQ:

The Sitka Sound Science Center is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to sharing the wonders and mysteries of Alaska’s terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems with its visitors. There are many aspects of the science center that will interest you, whether it be the hatchery, aquarium, or field station. You can tour the operational hatchery, which produces over 250,000 Coho salmon, three million pink salmon, and twelve million chum salmon annually. Younger visitors love the aquarium, especially its touch tanks which let you feel a pointy urchin, anemone, or starfish. Once it’s all said and done be sure to stop by the gift shop to get some great souvenirs to take back with you.
