Arrival: Visitor center at 424 Howe Drive, not the Northcrest mailing address.
Approach: Consult the linked manager before selecting an arrival route; no new highway turns or navigation pin are asserted.
Operator verifies the actual visitor address; legal US-101 street approach and public parking entrance still require route-map evidence.
Manager access information ↗A NOAA-authorized nonprofit rescue, rehabilitation, and education center in Beachfront Park. Animals in care and public access vary; use its hotline for distressed marine mammals.
