The sea is a source of life and food since ancient times.
For thousands of years man has lived the relationship with the sea as a challenge, a constraint, a risk.
The need to navigate it exposed him to dangers and pushed him to an unknown world; exploiting its fish resources made it uncomfortable and hard; living near its shores made it vulnerable to enemy raids.
From the East to the West, from the north to the south of the globe, fishing has always provided nourishment to humans; man built boats able to sail the most stormy seas, through which he reached different areas of the Earth in search of wealth, livelihood and lands to conquer.
Man has developed different ways for fishing: rod and line, harpoon, diving, traps, throw nets and drag nets. Fishing boats can be paddle, engines or sailing.
The sea has always been represented in literature, poetry, theater, cinema and, of course, photography.

The sea, one it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever. (Jacques Cousteau)
Be always like the Sea, that breaking up against cliffs it finds always the force to try again. (Jim Morrison)
We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds. (Aristotle Onassis)
The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for the feels life stirring on all sides. (Jules Verne)
