Pretty cool little shell museum! They lend you a guide to read about each of the thousands of shells, if you want. Some of them are very interesting & beautiful!

Excellent museum, if you come to Piran, this is the place you must see. Very good explanation from the man who work there. The museum is not so big, but very interesting exhibits arranged in perfect order. Every recommendation don't miss it.
