Red Porgy

Red Porgy, known locally as “Pagar”, is a prized catch in the Adriatic. This species is characterized by its robust body and distinctive pinkish-red coloration. Red Porgy typically inhabits rocky and sandy bottoms at depths ranging from 10 to 250 meters. Its diet consists mainly of mollusks, crustaceans, and smaller fish. In Croatian cuisine, Red Porgy is celebrated for its firm, white flesh and is often prepared grilled or baked, seasoned with local herbs and olive oil to enhance its natural flavors.
