The first subaquatic museum of Europe is in Lanzarote and can already be visited. In order to see it people will have to get wet or go down in submarine. It is found at 14 metres below the surface. Its creator, Jaison DeCaries, has spent two years elaborating the gigantic figures that compose it. They are made in the image and resemblance of the men and women of the earth.

During this time, life has already been cropping up around the first figures placed below. And that is precisely what they were designed for. Materials with neutral a pH have been used so as not to damage the environment, so that seaweed can grow on them and the angel sharks, the barracudas or the octopuses can live peacefully.
