2024

📌 Throughout 2024, our museum hosted a total of 837 students and teachers from 29 different schools, introducing them to the fascinating world of the marine ecosystem.

While exploring the diversity of marine life with our visitors, we continued to raise environmental awareness and emphasize the importance of protecting our seas.

 In addition, our museum not only organizes exhibitions and guided tours, but also brings together experts and academics from various disciplines with our visitors through the Museum Talks Series. During these events held throughout 2024, scientists shared their valuable knowledge on topics such as marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and environmental awareness.
