The new permanent exhibition of the Ekenäs Visitor Centre offers a glimpse into how nature and life in the archipelago has changed over the years. The sea of change offers an interactive way for everyone to explore the changes in the archipelago, both on land and in the sea. The visitor can go from a pier or visit a fisherman`s hut from the early 1900`s. You can also take a dive to explore life beneath the waves. The exhibition is well suited for the whole family, but made especially with the environmental education of children in mind. We hope that the exhibition will make the visitor think; what can I do to help the sensitive environment of the archipelago?
