E-Bike in Vena at Riolo Terme

Board the “Stella Polare” for a short excursion that takes you from Ravenna to Marina di Ravenna and back.   The departure, either from Ravenna or from the sea, takes you across the Candiano, a navigable canal that houses part of the commercial and industrial port, connecting the City of Art with the Adriatic Sea.   Upon request, you will have the opportunity to board your bike, have an aperitif, have lunch on board or simply order takeaway.

Bicycle in Ravenna is not only a means of transport but a lifestyle.  Renting a bike you can immerse in the local city flair and discover the city of mosaic. You can also reach the Basilica of St. Apollinare in Classe and beaches of Ravenna on our cycling paths from the city centre. Book your bycicle ahead of your arrival to have it at your disposal.

Learn how to make pizza at home!   In our pizzeria you can learn all about pizza and flours and enjoy tastings with a sea view. You will have the pleasure of listening to a short lesson about flours and millstones, and watch a demonstration regarding the preparation of dough.   Mirco, our pizza chef, will explain how a kneading machine works and the correct dosage of ingredients, then show you how to prepare some types of pizza at home.  You will be given a personalised recipe, with all the guidelines for preparing pizza with your own hands, in your own kitchen, with home-made tools.   During the lesson, Mirco will guide you to discover other flavours and reveal some small secrets such as how to use a home oven.   To end on a high note, you can taste our pizzas and enjoy the rest of the day between swimming in the sea and a well-deserved rest under the beach umbrella.

Enjoy the evening meal of some of the special guests who are being treated at the Cestha Center (Experimental Center for Habitat Protection), a non-profit research organization, whose mission is environmental protection. The Research Centre, composed of researchers and specialists from the natural sciences, marine biology and veterinary medicine, deals with conservation programmes for endangered species and the promotion of sustainable management activities.   Your visit to the Marine Fauna Recovery Centre, located in the complex of the ancient Fish Market in Marina di Ravenna, converted in recent years into a marine research centre, will be led by this very team of biologists. The experience is suitable for everyone and takes place in the context of environmental education, to raise awareness of today's issues: waste, proper use of plastic and respect for the environment. You will meet up close the turtles now being treated at the centre, learn about their history, clinical diagnosis, healing process and release into the sea. Finally, for those who wish, it will be possible to experience the thrill of actively participating in the daily feeding of some of the patients. The contribution of participation in this activity is aimed at supporting the fish fauna housed there, such as the turtles that are the protagonists of this 'experience'; but it also has another important and very heartfelt purpose: that of forming in all of us, starting from an early age, an environmental awareness that will accompany us and grow over time. In addition, the income will enable the Centre to bear the many expenses involved in managing this particular 'hospital', such as the cost of medicines, therapies and specialist veterinary examinations. In fact, the Centre supports itself thanks to its dissemination initiatives, as it receives no public funding for the care and management of sea turtles.

This summer, in partnership with Riviera Experience, we want to take you on a rediscovery of Ravenna's shores through unbitten tours, panoramas and stories outside the classic itineraries and clichés. The Bunker Tour of Marina di Ravenna is an example of this: numerous witnesses of the past survive here. The fortifications of the two great conflicts of the last century in the area represent a real open-air museum, recently rediscovered thanks to the work of a group of volunteers. The tour winds through the oldest areas of the country to tell about customs and traditions of that time, the incredible events of the W.W.Wars and the best-known characters who made the history of a small seaside village.   In collaboration with PRO LOCO MARINA DI RAVENNA
