Seafood tourism and fish tourism are expanding along the Spanish coastline

21 August, 2024

Seafood tourism and fish tourism are experiencing a remarkable boom in Spain, attracting a growing number of businesses and travellers interested in these activities. This type of tourism offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy experiences related to the sea and fishing, such as going out at sea with local fishermen or tasting fresh seafood.

Seafood tourism and fish tourism businesses, in which fishermen and shellfish gatherers show off their livelihoods, are flourishing on the coast and benefiting from the country’s good tourism momentum and the increase in travellers. Their offer has expanded on the Spanish coast, according to sources from the platforms and consultancy firms dedicated to these activities.

The companies involved also note a significant increase in tourists, a greater acceptance among domestic travellers and more demand from foreign visitors, from Europe and the United States. The boom is also affecting the setting up of fish markets for guided tours, including the opening of restaurants.
