Such a wonderful museum all around! We booked the private fossil tour and enjoyed exploring the museum before our tour. Pat was a wonderful guide and showed us the amazing paleontology fids around the museum. At the river bed, Pat was patient and kind and so engaging. He really took time with our kids, especially our youngest who wants to be a paleontologist. Thank you so much, Pat. It is an experience we will never forget!

A Gem of a Museum! A wonderful local collection of fossils and awesome information on the history of paleontology on the island. Great for kids. Helpful and friendly staff.

Great exhibits! Loved seeing the local collections. Booked a fossil hunting tour with my 3 year old twins and husband with pat and it was 100% worth the time and money. Pat really knew his stuff, was amazing with our kids, and made sure we all had a blast.

Very small but the kids enjoyed. Teen working was full of sass when my 5yr old nephew went upstairs to show his mom the Dino tails attached to him. There's only one way in/one way out. They're not exactly inconspicuous.

This little museum is a great little visit. Home to the locally found Elasmosaur skeleton!! This small museum has lots of interesting facts about the Comox Valley and surrounding areas. It doesn't take long to walk through, but has lots to read about, and some cool artifacts! Admission is by donation (they recommend $5.00 for adults)

Worth for the check and easily spend 30mins to know the history and ancient ocean creatures. If you have children this place is must go … They don’t sell tickets only accept donations around $5

We really enjoyed it. There is interactive things for kids to do while learning about all sorts of things. Kids really enjoy going through the mine, I found it all very well done. As well, DINOSAURS!!! Best on the island for learning about some DINOSAURs.
