O’Neill Sea Odyssey (OSO) engages 4th - 6th grade youth with a hands-on science education field trip on a 65-foot catamaran on Monterey Bay and in a shore-side education center, in addition to ocean science curriculum provided for use in the classroom. It is free, and each class completes a community service project. Our mission is to provide a hands-on educational experience to encourage the protection and preservation of our living sea and communities.
