Night of the lamps

Event organized by the Municipality of Cetara in collaboration with the Pro Loco Cetara-Costa D’Amalfi, which has as its main feature the possibility of assisting from the ferries to a real anchovy fishing trip off the coast of Cetara. During fishing, the characteristic lamparas are used to attract the shoals of anchovies under the light source. Upon returning from the fishing trip, the lamps are left lit in the bay of Cetara while on the beach it is possible to taste dishes based on anchovies and blue fish and watch popular music performances.
The event takes place every year in July on a date chosen according to the phases of the moon which are essential for anchovy fishing.
