Treasures from the blue

“Treasures from the blue: a journey to discover the excellence of the sea” is the title of the project that brings together the city of Mazara del Vallo (Sicily) and Cetara, a municipality on the Amalfi coast, united by a strong link with fishing.

“Treasures from the blue” is the project that enhances stories, men, resources and the territory; a concrete plan that starts from the past, enhancing the traditional baggage of the Mediterranean communities, and which looks to the future, defining the new development levers for the local fish sector.

The value of the marine resource, considered a pillar of the Mediterranean Diet, is an essential strategic lever for the economic development of small coastal communities. The intent is to raise awareness of the qualities of the local fish product, its characteristics and the benefits deriving from its consumption.

The intent is to make known the qualities of local fish, with particular reference to the Red shrimp PDO of Mazara and Anchovy Colatura PDO of Cetara, its characteristics and the benefits deriving from its consumption.

During the days of the event in Cetara, conferences on fishing issues will alternate, show cooking with local excellence, tastings of fish products, traveling shows, music, projections of historical videos, art exhibitions, ceramic workshops.
