Economic activity

Vineyards were the most important crop and gave rise to the production of aiguardent (brandy) and the famous Malvasia wine variety, exported to America since the 18th century. The fishing industry has all but disappeared, while cultural and tourist activities have become the most active economic sector. It is also considered an upscale residential municipality. Thus, the retail offering is strong and exclusive.
