South of Ravenna

To the discovery of the territory south of Ravenna

Just beyond the southern border of Ravenna, along the coast and inland, you will find some very interesting destinations with sea, bars and pubs, food and drink, events and culture.

Cervia and Milano Marittima

CERVIA and MILANO MARITTIMA are two sides of the same coin. Together, they offer an all-inclusive experience, perfect for a daily trip or just a quick stop.

The tiny fascinating historical centre of Cervia develops around the canal, crowded with tiny vivid boats, pubs and boutiques. Dominated by the San Michele Tower, the city centre is perfect for a stroll in search of a good restaurant or an original souvenir.

Many pubs, bars and beach establishments overlook the wide and well-cared seafront that leads to the nearby seaside resort of Pinarella.

Milano Marittima is one of the summer capitals of nightlife, marked by a number of elegant beach establishments and sports facilities, as well as clubs, shops and restaurants. The thick pine forest embracing this seaside town is ideal for running and excursions.

Here, spread across the woods, you will find the fitness trails by CerviAvventura, an amazing natural park with animals and one of the four spas in the Province of Ravenna.

The Salt Pans of Cervia

Between Cervia and Villa inferno is a brackish water basin, and here is where the ancient Salt Pans are. Trasformed in the 1960s, today they are managed by Gruppo Culturale Civiltà Salinara, which produces this valuable salt, Slow Food presidium.

Most of the salt pan is today inhabited by wonderful specimens of avifauna, which make it one of the most important watching points for migratory species. Among them are flamingos, shelducks and black-winged stilts.

The Salt Pans can be visited in different ways, but always accompanied by authorized guides. All of the excursions depart from the Visitor Centre.

Rimini

RIMINI is the last stretch of Romagna. Rimini means sea, Federico Fellini and much more. Beyond beaches, bars, beach establishments, and its great historical and cultural tradition, this city offers a multifaceted visit. From the important Roman relics, such as the Arch of Augustus and the Bridge of Tiberius, to the Surgeon’s Domus and the Malatesta Temple, Rimini will give you an original experience, between relazation and culture.

There are many possible itineraries: from the places dedicated to the memory of Federico Fellini to the ones with a Roman, medieval or Renaissance past, featuring historical palaces, places of natural interest, shopping, and great culinary tradition.
All around the city, themed parks, spas and several bike trails will give you the chance to enjoy outdoor experiences.

Santarcangelo di Romagna

Motherland of popes, writers, scholars as very few other places in the region, SANTARCANGELO is also one of the most charming towns of the Rimini inland.

Nestled on the hills of Valmarecchia, it offers many itineraries that talk about Santarcangelo’s Roman origins, as well as medieval (also underground!) and modern history, through the immortal words of Tonino Guerra. With its narrow alleys, gates, old boutiques and monasteries, the city centre is just two steps away from unblemished natural areas, with trails and panoramic views.
