Description
Discover the art of traditional fishing on the Costa Brava with a hands-on experience aboard the historic Jolie Biche schooner. This 2.5-hour activity invites you to learn basic rod fishing techniques, guided by a professional skipper, as you sail through the beautiful waters around Palamós and the Formigues Islands. No prior experience is needed—this outing is designed for anyone curious about the sea and eager to try fishing in a relaxed, authentic setting.
Your journey begins at the Port of Palamós, where you’ll board the Jolie Biche and meet your crew. After a short introduction, you’ll be shown how to use rods and baits, and receive a collective fishing license for the day. As the schooner glides along the coastline, you’ll alternate between fishing sessions and tranquil sailing, all while soaking in the unique maritime atmosphere. If the weather allows, the boat will anchor in a quiet cove, giving you the chance to swim in clear Mediterranean waters and enjoy a refreshing break.
Throughout the trip, you’ll have time to relax on deck, enjoy an included drink, and take in the coastal scenery away from the crowds. The experience concludes back at the Port of Palamós, leaving you with new skills, great memories, and the option to explore the harbour further at your own pace.
