The Museum of Fishing Vessels and Equipment has an educational and research role, also doing much to promote the local identity and keep alive its links with its history.
The items on display include ancient anchors, fishing nets, fishing rods and hooks, compasses, beacons and lamps and many other intriguing exhibits. There are 3D recreations of a variety of fishing techniques, demonstrating how the different kinds of vessel and net are used, with replicas of fishing boats and a rich archive of documents and illustrations.
