KM3NeT: Present status and potentiality for the search for exotic particles

The aim of the KM3NeT Project is to build a very large volume (more than 1 km3) neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea. The up to date status of the project is presented, and the main physics goals are reviewed. The possibility to search for super-massive exotic particles (magnetic monopoles, nuclearites, Q-balls) is addressed in the final part of the paper.
