Exploring the potential of rural pesca-tourism in Wales

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

This paper is based upon a series of empirical case studies along food chains associated with coastal tourism experiences across Wales all related to seafood and fish as embodied knowledges of place local food heritage. The theoretical concept of responsible pesca-tourism is explored along with different knowledges and expectations of how to facilitate local value added from fished resources and gastronomy. Tales of past traditional coastal fishing heritage are also shared as a contrast with fresh aspirations and stories based on new forms of entrepreneurship focussing on coarse fishing in order to examine the potential of a wide range of rural food experiences within regeneration.
