Ranger Led Field Trips

Hands-On Learning with Ranger-Guided Field Trips

Connect your students to nature, history, and science at Cabrillo National Monument, where the park becomes the ultimate classroom. Our ranger-led field trips provide hands-on, immersive experiences that bring the site's natural and cultural resources to life.

• Program Options: We offer a variety of ranger-led programs tailored to different grade levels and learning objectives. Each program is designed to engage students with interactive activities and discussions that align with curriculum standards. Explore the available options below to find the perfect fit for your class.
• Planning Resources: Maximize your field trip experience with our planning resources, including pre-visit materials, activity guides, and logistics information to help you prepare for a seamless visit.
• Confirmation Emails: After signing up for a field trip, be sure to check your spam folder for a confirmation email, as it may end up there. If you don’t receive it, please contact us for assistance.
• Reservation Availability: Reservations are now closed for both in-person and virtual programs, allowing you to bring Cabrillo National Monument to your classroom no matter where you are located.

IMPORTANT Update:

To ensure a focused and equitable educational experience, school groups are not permitted to enter the gift store during their visit. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

 

Plan Your Visit:

Cabrillo welcomes educational groups interested in exploring the park independently, without participating in Ranger-led programs. While reservations are not required for self-guided trips, your group may qualify for a park fee waiver.
