Hall 1 of 7
Marine Life & Sharks
This is where the museum was born. The great marine hall holds more than forty species of shark, plus dolphins, sea turtles, rays, eels and hundreds of Mediterranean fish — most of them landed by the fishermen of Tyre and preserved by hand.
Stand under the hammerhead and look up.
