For the first time, the Sorrento council has decided to create a department known as “Risorsa Mare” (sea resources). The idea of this is for the local administrators to focus on the sea not as an element to be exploited, but as a common heritage to be safeguarded, protected and used economically with regulations and respect. Sorrento is the end sector of the Punta Campanella Marine Reserve, but Sorrento is also where expansion of nautical services and upgrading of the shoreline areas is already under way. New marine routes for tourism will be created around these infrastructures, therefore not only place-to-place connections but also emotions to be experienced, perhaps in a traditional “gozzo”, still constructed in the Sorrentine dockyards, combining traditional and modern with respect to our vocation and ambition. Fishing also resists among our traditions, and to this we will pay due attention, since it forms part of our collective cultural heritage. The sea, herefore an opportunity of life and development.
