Erraticità e bellezza della Costa Viola: borghi marinari, viticoltura eroica e turismo gastronomico - Erratic Behavior and Beauty of Costa Viola: Sea Villages, Heroic Viticulture and Gastronomic Tourism

The study aims at investigating the terraced heroic viticulture and fishing companies of the Costa Viola, like pieces of a mosaic cultural landscape constantly evolving. They become essential in the growth and creative resistance paths of the area like vulnerability, the experience, the resilience, the availability to the multifunctionality. The methodology is based on direct surveys and interviews in order to examine the potential of the area and the financial results on wine and fishing activity. The results show that, compared with an eco-systemic fragility of the fishing villages, the integration of territory and sea protection, and agricultural, fisheries, landscape resources and gastronomy of the territory, could represent, if properly directed and encouraged, a point of the strength of the territory and trigger processes of sustainable development and growth.
