New Mel Fisher Exhibit
Search for the Atocha: Adventure of a Lifetime       
The search for the Atocha is more than one man's journey.  Mel's wife, children, friends, investors, and community were involved in the quest.  Years of underwater exploration were matched by years of archival research.  Success was met with costly court cases, while the loss of loved ones tempered the gain of treasure.  Learn more about one of the greatest adventure stories of all time!  Don't miss this new exhibit, which opened in May 2014. 
Mel Fisher with archaeologist Duncan Mathewson and researcher Gene Lyon review artifacts found from the Atocha. 1975.
