THE FISH
BOATS
The Mediterranean’s only floating museum dedicated to traditional fishing vessels
Floating Museum
La Gacela and the Estrella Polar, two wooden fishing boats built in the second half of the 20th century, form the extension into the water of the Fishing Museum in Palamós. Today, they are the only, floating and visitable wooden boats, with these characteristics across the whole Mediterranean.
The Boats
The boats form part of our heritage, the coastal landscape and our culture. They also express a way of life.
The Visit
The Fishing Boats, two boats converted into a cultural facility to enjoy a sensory, fun and educational experience, accessible to all kinds of groups.
The project "Execution of the project for the museumisation of two boats in the port of Palamós (for the dissemination and diffusion of fishing culture and heritage)" is a project financed by the European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund (EMFF).
The Fish Boats incorporate accessibility measures to facilitate and enrich the visit for groups with visual and hearing impairments.
