towards the environment

and the species

The scientific community has used almadrabas as an "observatory" to understand the evolution and abundance of bluefin tuna.

The Almadraba is a selective fishing method, meaning only desired specimens are caught, and those that do not meet size and quality criteria are released. This helps maintain the sea's ecological balance and protect species from overexploitation.

The fixing system of the almadraba does not damage the seabed and serves as a temporary reef, thus protecting other species.

Almadrabas are placed along the migratory path of tunas and are only fished once a year, from April to May. This allows for population recovery and species conservation.

The ICCAT DCA is a unique number provided by the "International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas"for the purpose of identifying the legality of caught tuna.

Gadira, Productos de Almadraba is committed to a fixed, selective and sustainable fishing method as the almadrabas of the coast of Cadiz, with a tradition of more than 3,000 years fishing Almadraba Wild Tuna. The catch depends on climatological factors such as tides, winds, cleanliness and transparency of the waters, etc,… It is carried out during the months of April and May, taking advantage of their migration process to the MediterraneanSea and coinciding with the moment they offer their optimal quality for consumption.
