Mareis, the Sea Fishing Discovery Centre
Open the doors to the world of sea fishing! A truly original concept on the sea, Mareis is also an amazing educational tool much appreciated by children.

From the navigation simulator to the foam school, from the ‘gust of wind’ room to touch-and-feel basins, Mareis is a unique experience for interactive and cultural games!

The Workshop and Miniature House
The children’s eyes will light up as the marvellous model of Etaples harbour comes to life. In this miniature reproduction of just 32 m2, you can hear the blacksmith tapping on his anvil, watch the fairground rides flashing, hear the fire brigade sounding its siren to come and put out a fire, and boats entering the harbour. And the cries of the seagulls make the scene even truer than nature itself! But the Miniature House is also the opportunity for children to admire aircraft, boats, cars and trains of a collection that boasts over 900 models. And to tap into the mysteries of these models, a visit to the workshop is a must!
