The Seacoast Science Center, located at Odiorne Point State Park, is a nonprofit organization for marine science education. The center is full of hands-on discovery and fun exhibits about the animals and habitats along the coast of New Hampshire. Upon entering the science center, guests are greeted by skeletons of a harbor porpoise, two pilot whales, and a 32-foot humpback whale. One of the favorite spots in the Seacoast Science Center, particularly among younger visitors, is the Tide Pool Touch Tank, which offers a chance for people to touch hermit crabs, sea urchins, sea stars, and other sea creatures.
