From the collections of the San Diego Historical Society, you can read or listen to interviews with people whose way of life depended on the ocean and its resources, and you can view over 3,500 photographs covering a 100-year span that show how the ocean shaped the people, geography, growth, and development of California. These interviews and images provide an historical look at some of the people, places, events, and activities that played a part in California's relationship to the ocean. |

Oral Histories
Scripps built a fleet of ships, and its scientists sailed the oceans of the world to study the seas, marine life and the seafloor. You can see images taken on these expeditions from this page. Sailors used their cameras to take photographs aboard ship and in port. Scripps cameramen filmed some expeditions. Scuba divers used underwater cameras to photograph rocks and marine life. Special cameras were lowered from the ship to photograph the deep seafloor.
