Located in the old fish market in front of the Cervantes Esplanade, next to the port, the Museum of the Sea of Dénia houses more than 400 archaeological and ethnological pieces linked to the historical relationship of the city with the Mediterranean. From amphorae from the 6th century BC to objects linked to the seafaring trade of the 20th century, the tour offers an in-depth look at fishing, shipwrecks and local maritime culture.

Varied collection: Roman amphorae, remains of boats, crockery, historical photographs and ethnological objects that narrate centuries of fishing activity.
Temporary exhibitions related to the maritime history of the city.
Unique atmosphere: the original building – the fish market – provides authenticity, and from some rooms you can enjoy views of the port, integrating past and landscape in an accessible and educational visit.
