. Hold one to your ear and you remember salty air, crashing waves and sand between your toes. Boasting some of the worlds most breathtaking beaches, Phuket Thailand is truly a vision of paradise on Earth.

Collected over three generations by the Patamakanthin family, the museum showcases species from all over the world. Mountains of Giant Clams weighing over 200 kg, tiny grain sized micro shells, Australian murex of strange shapes, and brightly coloured tree snails highlight this assortment. Tours in Thai and English will give an insight into the bio-diversity of the area and how humans and these creatures share the same origins billions of years ago.
