The Riviera Romagnola
The Riviera Romagnola is a timeless icon, a mosaic of atmospheres that has enchanted entire generations. Here, the untamed spirit of the sea blends with the allure of a beach lifestyle that is much more than you might expect—it’s a ritual, a celebration of freedom and pleasure.
By day, the sun embraces the golden sand, and the waves gently caress the shore, while people gather under beach umbrellas, sipping refreshing cocktails and enjoying lighthearted conversations. At sunset, the Riviera transforms: the soft lights of bistros reflect on the sea, the aromas of Romagnola cuisine fill the air, and the evenings come alive with music, laughter, and unforgettable encounters.
But Romagna is also the perfect balance between energy and tranquility. It’s resting under the cool shade of a pine forest, taking long walks along the shoreline, and experiencing the genuine warmth of a land that welcomes everyone with spontaneity and hospitality.
Milano Marittima: A Milan by the sea

Overlooking golden beaches and embraced by lush pine forests, this destination is an oasis of charm and well-being, a place that has always attracted travelers seeking a balance between vibrancy and serenity.
Its roots trace back to the early 20th century when the Lombard bourgeoisie, inspired by Ebenezer Howard’s Garden City Movement, envisioned a new Milan by the sea elegant, lively, and harmoniously integrated into its natural surroundings. From this vision emerged a place of sophisticated terraces, pools immersed in greenery, tree-lined boulevards, and stylish boutiques, all in perfect respect of the unspoiled landscape.
Today, Milano Marittima preserves its original spirit a chic retreat where relaxation intertwines with the pleasures of authentic cuisine, long sun-soaked days, and the effortless rhythm of the Romagna dolce vita. Enhancing the charm of this Riviera gem are the Cervia Natural Park, a green sanctuary home to centuries-old pine forests, and the Cervia Salt Pans, where the renowned Sweet Salt considered the "white gold" of Romagna is produced.
