Europe’s biggest fishing nation

"Spain is surrounded by sea: productive waters which are not only used intensively for fishing but also for aquaculture. In the Spanish fish industry centuries-old fishing traditions, knowledge and expertise about processing fish, shellfish and crustaceans are combined with the opportunities offered by modern production methods and marketing channels. Whether the products are canned, frozen or fresh, Spanish seafood products enjoy a very good reputation both at home and abroad.

The Spanish fish industry is modern, efficient and competitive, offering everything that today’s market demands from fresh fish to high-quality convenience products."

“The people of the Azores have used small vessels and traditional fishing methods for generations without endangering fish stocks or the environment.”

Stephan Lutter of WWF Germany.

“Now the number of Spanish longliners licensed to fish in Azorean waters has increased from zero to at least 140 vessels in only 2 years.”

"The Azores is one of the best preserved deep sea environments in European waters."
