The ancient windmills and the shale “storerooms” are now summer houses. Apúlia beach is today mainly known as a summer resort. However, the bay, given its good natural conditions, has been used since the Roman presence on the Peninsula as a place to load goods. Several medieval references appear in the documentation, which prove the agricultural importance of this region. When going to the beaches to bathe became part of everyday life, Apúlia beach gained fame for the high levels of iodine recorded. From all the nearby towns, Barcelos, Braga, Famalicão and Porto, tourists began to look for Apúlia as a holiday destination. Today, for this reason and for the excellence of the bay, Apúlia beach continues to invite a holiday season focused on the Atlantic. The sea has always been a source of wealth to explore. Here in Puglia, besides salt and fish, the exploration of sargassum was one of the most important agro-maritime activities. Testimony of a time when the collection of this product was an important task are the tents, installed directly on the dune, where the harvesting tools were kept.
