Giovannazzo tourist information
By virtue of its location, the inhabitants of Giovinazzo enjoy a long tradition of fishing, a line of work done by small, local businesses with the intent of local consumption. Fresh fish (caught within a few hours) is a staple of Giovinazzo cuisine; each morning one can go to the fish market and see the freshest catch.
In addition to the fishing industry, agriculture has always been a primary activity for the residents of Giovinazzo. Farming in the region consists of an assortment of vegetables and fruit trees, but the one crop for which Giovinazzo is best know is olives. Olives from this region produce one of the best oils in Italy.
Another regional crop that is nearly as famous as Giovinazzo's olives is almonds. The sweet almonds of the area are used to make some of the most delicious sweets for holidays such as Christmas or Easter.
Besides fishing and agriculture, industry once existed in Giovinazzo. A very active steel mill, which is now closed as a result of world-wide steel price decline, was once a large employer for the area. White stone (a resource found throughout the Apulia Region) is very prevalent around this city.
