Fishing is one of the most ancient human activities and traditional fishing has been practiced in Greece since ancient times. Little has changed since then in the daily life of a fisherman. Yes, we now have instruments to navigate and to scan the seabed, but the essence of fishing life remains unaffected.
Fishing tourism is an eco-tourism activity that's relatively new in Greece and contributes to taking pressure off fish stocks. It offers a unique opportunity to live a day in a caique, watch and learn about traditional fishing and most importantly taste the fish just minutes after they come out of the sea!
While you are out #FishingWithYiannis you will have the opportunity to watch him fish with nets, long-line or traps. You can help and learn more about these methods or fish by yourself using a handline or fishing rod.
Yiannis, our captain, will cook the fish for you, make a traditional fish-soup “kakavia” and just maybe he will share his recipes with you! Most common fishes in the area: red porgy, sparrows, scorpion fish, sea bass, sea breams, comber, bogue & lobster.
