The article published on 25th September 2022 in Siviaggia website presents the interest of people in experiencing the sea as protagonists by learning more about the habitat and ecosystem at the same time immersing themselves in the cultural aspects of the local coasts where pescatourism and ittitourism is offered.

These activities open up a new door for tourists to learn the lifestyle of fishermen and local fisher villages throughout Italy. For this same reason Legacoop Agroalimentare, Italian partner of FISH MED NET, provides an opportunity to many fishers to share their lifestyle, empowering them by being local guardians and teachers explaining their jobs and lifestyles. By promoting this type of tourism together with local fishermen, it also helps them increase their incomes while reducing fishing pressure to the ecosystem.
