After years of uncertainty due to problems with the land and financing, the new Oceanographic Centre in Malaga Port is expected to be completed in a few weeks, probably some time in January.

The building will be nearly 5,000 square metres in size and four storeys high and will have two separate areas: one containing administrative offices and a library, and the other with the laboratories and their associated offices.

The present oceanographic centre is in Fuengirola port, but it will not be able to transfer to Malaga immediately. The new centre has yet to be connected to the electricity supply and at present the centre cannot afford the estimated 60,000 to 70,000 euros to equip the laboratories. When completed, however, about 75 researchers will work there.
