Palm Beach Museum of Natural History, Florida, United States
5.0 (4 reviews) Thursday: 2:30 PM - 7:30 PM Spent < 1 hour Ranking #8 in Wellington Natural History Museums
Passionate paleontologist
We headed to the museum with our kids without knowing that it was closed due to the arrival of hurricane Nicole. Seeing our deception, the collection director Rudolph Pascucci opened his museum for us and gave us one of the best paleontology presentation I've ever had while our kids we're playing in the kids discovery area. Mr. Pascucci is a passionate professional that transmitted us is love for science.

Amazing place
The Director who was also our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, good popularizer and entertaining. Even if the actual museum size is small, I've learned more in that tour then in many big famous museum. We've been there for my 4 years old son but I think adults enjoyed the tour even more. Really well adapted for children with activities for all ages.

Paleontologist Robert DePalma and the incredible dino museum in a storefront
Famous paleontologist Robert DePalma is the curator of this storefront museum at the Wellington Mall. With the news of DePalma's discovery of first fossil record from the extinction asteroid, I was eager to see the collection. Amazing for such a small space. DePalma's artistry, complete Triceratops skeleton, Saber Tooth cats, prehistoric artifacts. Director Rudy Pascucci gives the tours in full field gear. Model fossil collecting camp from Hell's Creek. Dramatic Florida fossil collection. This place is an incredible find for all ages.
