Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Ocean Science Exhibit Center Review
You can learn about the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution at this small center with exhibits on its various projects.

If you'd prefer to see the actual institution, hour-long walking tours are offered weekdays at 10:30 and 1:30 in July and August. Tours begin at 93 Water Street and are free, but reservations are required.
