Essential Museums in Spain

OTHER MUSEUMS THAT WILL SURPRISE YOU

But perhaps the most unusual museum in the whole of Spain is the Lanzarote Atlantic Museum in the Canary Islands. It's an art gallery under the sea, where you'll have to dive down amongst shoals of sardines, oc topuses and sea sponges to discover the 12 figures installed by the North American artist Jason deCaires Taylor. The figures, inspired by the inhabitants of the island of Lanzarote, are a call in defence of the oceans against contamination. And they are constructed with pH neutral materials so they are adapted to marine life and will ulti mately generate an artificial reef.
