Entre ellos destaca el dedicado a Augusto González de Linares (1845-1904), pionero de la oceanografía en España y fundador de la primera estación de biología marina. Inaugurado en 1908 y obra del escultor José Quintana, combina busto, pedestal y elementos alegóricos, como la figura de La Fama y un cojín con fauna marina.
