An enlightened journey tinged with light poetry on a coast he knows like the back of his hand. Respected and recognized by an entire profession, he shares his love of the sea with you. Vincent Chiocca Junior born in 1977. Like his father, he left school at the age of 14, with only one wish: to follow the same path, to become a fisherman. At 17, after 3 years at the Merchant Marine school in Sète, he became a captain. At 18, he became a fishing boss, and lets you enjoy his fishing, by supplying his father's boat.
