The main objective of the FISHING ROUTE project is to enhance the value of the maritime and fishing industrial heritage through a platform that will strengthen the identity and the construction of stories in the territories and their communities as Tourism Spain experiences. The creation of this national route of industrial maritime fishing tourism experiences will generate a new and enriching experience for national and international tourists, providing the opportunity to learn about the fishing and maritime industry, giving visibility to the sector, supporting its economic development and improving interaction with citizens.
This project, based on experiences already developed by the consortium, will elaborate a Handbook of tourism experiences linked to the fishing industry and will redesign new experiences taking into account a philosophy of accessibility and inclusiveness.
Fundación Valenciaport will contribute to this project through the following means:
- Providing the experience acquired in the TOURISMED project in the Valencia Region for its inclusion in the Manual of Fishing Tourism Experiences.
- Working on the redesign of these tourism experiences in the community and set up a pilot fishing tourism project taking into account accessibility and inclusion requirements.
- Collaborating in the development of communication material and audiovisual content.
- Carrying out a transfer plan to other territories
