A major exhibition is taking place through September to mark the 130th anniversary of the Port Erin Marine Laboratory.
It'll feature the story of the Laboratory from its opening right through to its closure in 2006, alongside its move from Mortuary Beach to the end of the bay.
The exhibition is titled 'The Winkle Pickers,' after the nickname residents gave to those who worked and studied at the site.
