# 🐟 Cyprus Fish Dataset

## Dataset Summary

This dataset consists of images of various fish species that live around **Cyprus Island**. Images have been sourced from Google Images to build a classification model.

Due to the limited amount of samples per class, the data has been split into training and testing sets to facilitate reproducible research.

This dataset covers 5 species:
