Whether you are a long time Palos Verdes resident and are familiar with the Marine Mammal Care Center or are new to the area and don’t know yet about this organization, we are excited to share this remarkable center with you.

Located at Fort MacArthur in San Pedro, the Marine Mammal Care Center has treated and helped rehabilitate more than 8,000 marine mammal patients. The MMCC facility serves all Los Angeles county beaches where they provide care to injured, sick or malnourished sea lions stranded on the 70+ miles of beach from Malibu to Seal Beach; with the goal to rehabilitate and release them back to their ocean habitat. MMCC has provided top-notch care for marine mammals in need since 1992, with the goal of rehabilitating and releasing them back to their ocean home. In addition to providing treatment for LA County’s stranded marine mammals, MMCC has a multi-faceted educational program for students, teachers, and the general public about marine science and the animals cared for at our facility. MMCC works to increase public awareness on various environmental issues and the importance of ocean conservation through outreach activities and educational tours. MMCC also collaborates with scientists from around the country to conduct non-invasive research.
