At the ‘Sea Monsters’ exhibition, by artist Ricardo Nicolau de Almeida, we can see large monsters, human figures and animals made entirely from plastic waste collected from beaches, combining art and science to draw attention to a problem of enormous proportions, the solution to which depends on all of us.

No prior booking is required. A visit to the exhibition is included in the admission to the Parque Biológico de Gaia.
