Thai Island and Sea Natural History Museum, Marine research museum in Samaesan, Thailand.
The Thai Island and Sea Natural History Museum is a research museum in Samaesan with five exhibition halls. It displays marine creatures, rock samples, and information about environmental protection from Thai waters.
The museum was created as a project by the Architecture Faculty of King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang to teach about the sea. It was built to help visitors learn about Thailand's marine environment.
The galleries display information about traditional fishing practices and the importance of the sea in daily life for Thai coastal communities. You can see how people here have long depended on the ocean and what role marine resources play in their traditions.
The museum has several halls arranged in sequence that you can walk through at your own pace. It is easy to navigate and provides enough to explore for a few hours.
The exhibition halls follow a special naming system that emphasizes environmental responsibility, ranging from 'The Great Honor' to 'To Protect Thai Sea's Potentials'. These names reflect a philosophy that invites visitors to think about their relationship with the marine world.
