Philippe Cousteau Anchor Museum

Outdoor anchor collection on the Salinas seafront

The Philippe Cousteau Anchor Museum is an open-air maritime display on the Salinas seafront, west of Avilés. Its anchors, sea views, and dedication to Philippe Cousteau make it a distinctive coastal stop rather than a conventional indoor museum.

It is best combined with a walk along Salinas beach or the nearby headland paths. The museum is simple, but the setting gives it weight: heavy maritime objects, Atlantic weather, and a town shaped by the sea.
