Things to see and do La Barra – Manantiales

This museum reveals all the richness of the Uruguayan aquatic fauna. Discover the skeletons of whales or orcas, corals, lobsters or spider crabs, mollusks and seahorses. Lots of information. Everyone will be able to marvel at the 2.60 m sunfish caught in Solanas, or the 19 m whale skeleton... In three aquariums, corals, octopuses, snails and starfish will lead you in their aquatic ballet. Finally, we will discover - with photos and texts - the history of Piriápolis, Punta del Este and Pocitos (Montevideo).
