The heritage of Arteixo

Sorrizo Sea Museum
The museum is located on the wild and wonderful coast of Sorrizo. In a former marine research center from the 80s, converted into an interpretation center of the Costa da Morte Natura Network. Multipurpose and informative space with exhibition area and area for educational talks. It preserves the pit of one of the swimming pools converted into a small auditorium. It is right next to the sea so it is an impressive viewpoint of the Arteixo coast.
