Centre d'interprétation sur la mariculture

Open from mid-June to mid-September

Underwater Agriculture

Ok, so what's mariculture? In fact, it's part of aquaculture, which is to seafood what vegetables are to agriculture. So, in this interpretation centre, you will learn more about breeding techniques of these small marine living being that are intended or not to consumption. When people do mariculture, they grow oysters and shrimps, among other things. Oysters can also be grown in the aim of producing cultured pearls. The video commentaries presented at the interpretation centre will allow you to understand better this economical activity. It's a free meeting at Étang-du-Nord!
