What time does it start and how long is it?

You leave at 6am and spend about two hours at sea. Trips run from March to December.

What happens on board and what is included?

You are the crew's guests on their dawn outing along the coast. A fishing rod, bait and a K-way rain jacket are included, so you do not need to bring any gear. What you see depends on the sea that day.

Does the crew speak English?

Italian is always guaranteed. Other languages can be requested, so tell me what you need when you ask for a quote.

How many people can come? Are children welcome?

It is private, for 2 to 4 people. If children are coming, tell me their ages and I will check before confirming.

How much does it cost?

There is no public price. I will give you the cost in a tailored quote, together with the bike if you want one.

Send me the date, the number of people and where you are staying. I will send you a quote and arrange the trip with the crew. No online payment.

Experience recommended by SalentoBike

Sunrise fishing trip from Monopoli

Out at sea by 6am on a working fishing boat, with its crew and nobody else.

What you do

At 6am the harbour is barely awake. You step aboard a fishing boat with its crew and head out as the sky starts to turn pale.

For about two hours you follow the coast between Monopoli and Polignano a Mare from the point of view of the people who work this sea. You watch, you ask questions, you see the light change on the water.

It is private only, for 2 to 4 people, so the boat is yours and the crew's. Trips run from March to December.

By bike

Monopoli is far from my bases in Lecce, San Foca and Calimera, so this is not a ride out from Salento for the day.

Starting at 6 means you are back in port with the whole day ahead of you. If you are staying in the area I can deliver the bike to your accommodation, with a surcharge based on distance, and put together a self-guided route with GPX and roadbook for the rest of the day. Or keep it simple and make it a day off the bike.
