Fonda Fish Farm, Portorož

Great project and fantastic educational guided tours.

My husband and I recently visited Fonda Fish Farm and we had a terrific experience that was authentic and personal. The visit was not only very informative but was fun and the degustation of sea bass carpaccio and wine was delicious. After first hearing a captivating narrative of how the family achieved their vision for the farm from Dr. Irena Fonda, we boarded a pontoon boat and headed out to the fish farming pools in the middle of the Piran Bay and saw the sea bass being fed and percolating to the top of their pools. All the visits are guided by family members or other informed and invested individuals so one truly learns a tremendous amount about the sustainable practices employed by Fonda for raising their sea bass, sea bream & mussels. Professional visuals made it easy to see some of the details, for example, the nets undersea. We were lucky to have Lean Fonda, Irene’s brother, captain our boat that day and he generously shared his knowledge of the area with us as well. The team could not have been more hospitable. We highly recommend a visit!
