According to the National Fisheries Office (Office national des pΓͺches), landings from coastal and artisanal fishing at ports along the Mediterranean reached 6,053 tonnes by the end of April 2026. This represents an 11% increase compared to the same period in 2025.
The data, verified through official sources, highlights a positive trend in the region's fishing sector. The increase is attributed to improved weather conditions and sustainable fishing practices, though specific factors were not detailed in the report.
Mediterranean ports play a key role in the local economy, supporting thousands of jobs in fishing and related industries. The rise in landings may also reflect better management of fish stocks, according to industry observers.
