Sei Whale Skeleton (Los Silos)

On the shore of Los Silos, next to the Charco de los Chochos, the real skeleton of a sei whale (Balaenoptera borealis), a large Atlantic cetacean, is on display. Set outdoors along the coastal promenade, it lets visitors appreciate the animal's scale up close and serves as an educational feature about the marine fauna of the Canaries.
