Step aboard our beloved old “sea lady” — the Gajeta — and embark on a journey like no other.
She’s more than just a boat — she’s a storyteller, a keeper of memories from the days when island life beat to the rhythm of the tides. A time when families were anchored to the shore, fishermen ruled the coast, and the sea was not a view, but a way of life.
Feel the breeze in your hair as she gently glides across the water, whispering tales you’ll carry with you long after the journey ends — stories woven with the scent of salt, the sound of soft waves, and golden light dancing on ancient stone.
Then, step into the very heart of the city — entering just as mighty generals and humble fishermen once did. Walk the path where sea met land, and uncover the living history of a city that rose from the waves — a city shaped by the sea, and still pulsing with its rhythm today.
