The Muséum's marine stations
Located on the Brittany coast in Dinard and Concarneau, the Muséum's two marine stations are key observatories for local marine biodiversity and interactions with human societies. They have a range of resources at sea - boats, underwater diving, instrumentation, etc. - as well as laboratories, premises and technical platforms that are open to researchers from the Muséum and other institutions. The Concarneau station also has a marinarium where visitors can learn about the species found in Brittany's waters.
