Reviews

Cute and simple little place with some good history on the San Diego area as well as archaeology. I found the collection of artifacts and details about the various theories on how North and South America became populated very interesting and easy to follow. If you take the time to read everything and watch the videos (which are on YouTube), you could probably take up to 60 minutes enjoying the place. Average person might be 30 minutes or less. Make sure you check the hours before you come! Entrance is donation-based. They ask for a min of $5 by cash or Venmo
