Holiday apartment in Rosolina Mare between beach and lagoons

In the northern part of the Po Delta lies the Rosolina area, with the resort of Rosolina Mare. Here, expansive sandy beaches give way to an extensive pine forest as well as broad wetlands and lagoons. This creates a coastal landscape that combines beach, forest and watery environments.

Beach and forest as defining features

The beach of Rosolina Mare stretches for nine kilometres between the Adriatic Sea and the northern lagoons of the Po Delta. Behind the dunes, a dense, lush pine forest and Mediterranean woodland of holm oaks and downy oaks line the coast. Open sandy areas therefore meet sheltered woodland – a contrast that can help guide you when choosing the focus of your holiday.

Botanical trails in the southern coastal area

The Giardino Botanico di Porto Caleri is located in the southern coastal area and covers around 44 hectares. Its habitats range from the lagoon and dunes to the beach. You can explore it along three routes: a short route through the pine forest, a medium-length route that excludes the brackish wetland, or a longer route that includes this wetland. The different route lengths help you plan days in nature according to the time you wish to spend.

Flamingos and cycling stages

For nature observation, the La Via delle Valli Nord route passes through Valle Sagraeda; there, visitors can see one of the largest flamingo colonies in the Po Delta. Stage 3.2, “Adriatic Sea–Rosolina Mare–Chioggia”, of the Via del Mare is 75 kilometres long and classified as moderately difficult. It leads to the beaches of Rosolina Mare.

Lagoons and beaches in the surrounding area

The lagoons near Rosolina Mare, with their fish-farming areas, are used to raise several fish species. Nearby are Spiaggia di Rosolina Mare and Spiaggia di Isola Bacucco. The surrounding area also includes Spiaggia Libera Albarella and Spiaggia di Sottomarina. These different beach destinations complement the landscape around the long sandy beaches of Rosolina Mare.

Cultural destinations between the coast and the Po Delta

For a cultural accent, the area around Rosolina Mare is home to the Museo Civico Della Laguna Sud, the Museo Diocesano Chioggia, the Pinacoteca Ss.ma Trinità and the Museo di Zoologia Adriatica “Giuseppe Olivi”. This allows you to complement the coastal and nature themes with museums and art destinations without losing sight of the distinctive landscape of the Po Delta.
