Worth a visit

This museum is above the Chateaux Restaurant and has over 7000 sea shells! I was amazed by the variety and selection they have there - some very pretty an rare spieces. It also has a lovely gift shop.

    1st visit
    It was my 1st visit at the musee du Coquillage as i was staying at the Heritage Villas and it's worth going there as i personally learnt many things and saw many amazing sea creatures i have never seen before. I would personally recommend it for child and school teachers to take the initiative to bring their students there when going on for excursions!

    All local species
    This is cheap entertainment for an hour, the species collected are all local and there are a vast range of species in nice display cases.
