Overview

This is not just any visit: it is a dive into the real life of the port, led by those who have always lived that port.
We have been a family of fishermen for generations, and we take you where no one goes: between nets stretched out in the sun, hands marked by salt and tales that smell of the sea.
You will walk with us along the pier, listening to authentic stories and closely watching the slow and skilful gestures of fishermen as they repair their nets, just like they used to.
We will open the doors of our fishing boats, real boats that brave the sea every night, and we will tell you what life on board is really like, between effort, tradition and pride.
You will not find sets or scripts: you will find real people, voices that tell the deepest and most sincere Puglia.
It is an experience designed for those who want to know, understand, get excited. And bring home a memory that smells of wind, saltiness and truth!

Mercato Ittico Mola Di Bari

The experience begins in the beating heart of maritime tradition: the Fish Market of Mola di Bari. Here you can watch the arrival of fishing boats unloading fresh catches, while sailors sell fish directly, as they used to. The atmosphere is authentic, alive, full of voices, scents and ancient gestures.From here, a guided walk along the harbor starts, accompanied by a member of a historic fishing family. Between stretched nets, fishing boats and handed down tales, you will discover true stories of the sea and ancient crafts. You will meet fishermen who still repair nets by hand and learn traditional fishing techniques. Whenever possible, we will also visit a moored fishing vessel, to observe life on board up close. An authentic experience, designed for those who want to discover the truest soul of coastal Puglia, away from the most famous tourist routes.
