Museo Atlántico, off the south coast of Lanzarote consists of 12 installations and more than 300 life-size human figures, created by British sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor. The collection is designed to provoke environmental awareness and social change, with each piece creating an artificial reef. Some of the new installations are Immortal : A Mold of a local fisherman from the north coast of Lanzarote, the sculpture is made up of a series of concrete sticks and it is representing a traditional funeral pyre. Rubicon : A group of 35 figures walking towards a boundary between two realities. The wall is intended to be a monument to absurdity, a dysfunctional barrier in the middle of a vast fluid, three-dimensional space to remind us that we cannot segregate our oceans, air, climate or wildlife. Deregulated : A children's playground enjoyed by suited businessmen. A swing, a sea-saw. Demonstrating the arrogance of the corporate world towards the natural world. Human Gyre : Over 200 life-size figurative works creating a vast circular formation or gyre. A complex reef formation for marine species to inhabit and is a poignant statement for visitors reminding us that we have evolved from marine life.

Cavtat is a town on the Adriatic Coast of Croatia, southeast of Dubrovnik. It's known for its beaches, and the many ancient Illyrian necropolises dotted around the area.

Great diving in the maldives. Spoilt by the very poor company scubatravel, who completely ripped my party off.

The Museo Atlantico is the first underwater art museum in Europe. It aims to create a large artificial reef formed by sculptures made with neutral pH concrete that will in time increase its biomass. The fasilities include the work of Jason deCaires Taylor, highlighting the bond between art and nature allowing visitors to become aware of the importance of the sea and all natural resources. 2% of the income generated by the museum will go to sea protection and preservation projects. The Museo Atlantico will be completed in 2017. The museum currently has six different areas with contemporary areas. Los Jolateros A group of children on brass crafts called "jolateros" being used as a metaphor for the precarious possible future of our children. The Raft of Lampedusa representing the abandonment of humanity during the refugee crisis. A thought about hope and loss. Content A faceless couple taking a selfie encourages you to think about the use of all our technologies for self reference. Strategically placed next to the raft of lampedusa showing the couple with their back to the tragedy. El Rubicon 35 human figures heading in the same direction. All the sculptures are base don local residents of Lanzarote. Hybrids Merging nature and humanity living in harmony. These sculptures are half human and half cactus. The Photographers The photographers bring up the use of technology and the new voyeurism it brings.
