Abstract
EU policy has been supporting fishing tourism projects since 2000 with the general goal of fostering diversification initiatives and providing a higher social value to fishing activities. In this study the main features of this market are analysed through two fishing tourism projects which are still operational in Galicia, Margalaica and Pescanatur, undertaken by two Galician Fisheries Local Action Groups (FLAGs). The major results of this study reveal social changes brought about by these projects. Therefore, it can be concluded that the EU main objectives are relevant to the Galician case. Furthermore, the results show that the development and success of these projects depend on the roles played by the different stakeholders involved.
