Bonagia

Famous for its ancient tuna fishery, Bonagia has always been devoted to tuna fishing. Theancient seaside town of Bonagia, now known for its marina and as a seaside resort, was until very recently the center of frenetic activity revolving around the Mediterranean bluefin tuna fishery. Its ancient and large Tonnara, dating back to the second half of the 1200s, was until a few years ago one of the few still active. Today, however, it has been converted into a hotel. Hotel“La Tonnara” also has a small museum where tools and archaeological finds are displayed that tell the story of the activity around which, at one time, all of the city’s life revolved.
