Join us for a special evening on the waterfront at Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute (HSWRI) in Mission Bay. We’ll kick off the event by relaxing on HSWRI’s scenic back patio, taking in the beautiful bay views, connecting with fellow Rotarians and enjoying some food & drink.
Following our social time, you’ll be guided on an exciting behind-the-scenes tour of HSWRI’s Mission Bay laboratory. Discover the groundbreaking work being done to protect marine life, restore ocean habitats, and advance marine science — and learn how HSWRI’s research makes a global impact right here from San Diego.

From Ingraham Street/Mission Bay Drive:
Move to the left one lane (otherwise you will be caught in a cloverleaf that takes you to Mission Beach). You will see a sign overhead for SeaWorld — use this as your guide for which lane to be in. Turn right at the first stoplight (Perez Cove Way). Our building (stone façade, with Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute logo) is on the corner of Ingraham Street and Perez Cove Way. If there is no oncoming traffic, you can make a quick left into the second driveway (the first is blocked with a barrier pole) immediately after turning right at the stoplight. There is a roundabout that leads you to our parking lot.
