Discover the true spirit of the sea in Bari as you step aboard a traditional gozzo, the historic wooden boat still used by local fishermen. Guided by an experienced sailor from Bari, you’ll learn time-honored fishing techniques passed down through generations and uncover the secrets of an ancient craft.

During this two-and-a-half-hour excursion, you can choose between bottom fishing—perfect for the calm waters of the Adriatic—or trying your hand at octopus fishing, one of the most authentic and fascinating traditions of Bari. Your captain will guide you step by step, sharing stories, insights, and anecdotes about fishermen’s daily life and the deep bond between Bari and its sea.

And of course, whatever you catch is yours to keep—a genuine and tangible memory of an experience infused authenticity, and tradition.

This activity is limited to a maximum of 4 participants, making it ideal for sea lovers who want to experience Bari from a truly local perspective.
