Top Vieste Fishing Charters

One of a kind experience. Chance to try traditional fishing in Trabucco as it was in ancient times, long before tourism and technology.

The Gargano Trabucchi—an ancient fishing device using large mesh nets and no machinery—are famous along the Apulian coast, and part of the region’s cultural heritage. However, it takes local experience to know how they operate and to see them in action. On this interactive private tour, help pull the nets and collect fish, topped off a tasting of regional snacks and goodies.

Fishing experience on the Trabucco San Francesco Become the protagonist of a centuries-old maritime art! You won't just be a spectator. Flanked by the "Twirling Masters", you will experience the thrill of a traditional fishing trip, conducted exactly as it once was. No modern technology : you will be the one to manoeuvre the big winches with the force of your arms and to operate the nets. It is an extremely safe and engaging activity, especially loved by children, who enjoy actively participating feeling like real sailors. Between fishing trips, while waiting for the fish to pass, you will enjoy a small local aperitif, to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the trebuchet suspended on the waves.
