Marina Romea: pine forests, Pialassa and long beaches
Accommodation in Marina Romea
Marina Romea between strips of dunes and pine forests
Marina Romea and Porto Corsini lie on the strip of dunes encompassed by the protected area “Pialasse Baiona, Risega e Pontazzo”. The waters of Pialassa della Baiona reach Marina Romea, while centuries-old pine forests surround the town.
Behind Marina Romea, the Pineta Miserocchi lies directly beside Pialassa della Baiona. The protected coastal woodland belongs to the Po Delta Regional Park and the Natura 2000 network. This area is particularly interesting for you if you are planning your stay not only around the beach, but also with nature observation and quiet paths along the water.

The Pineta Miserocchi and its paths
A path through the Pineta Miserocchi connects a viewing tower for panoramic views and birdwatching with the Prato Barenicolo. For longer stretches, it runs alongside the tranquil waters of Pialassa Baiona. Anyone who enjoys walking and combining nature observation with changing views will find a section of path here that is closely connected to the landscape. For planning the route, the viewing tower and Prato Barenicolo can be used as two reference points for this section between forest and water.
Walks along Pialassa della Baiona also bring traditional fishing huts and flocks of birds together. This combination is especially interesting for you if you would like to combine observing the landscape with a peaceful pace on your walks.
Another viewing tower is located in Marina Romea itself, in the Bassa della Vigna area. From there, you can observe the eastern part of Baiona.
Beach, water and the Lamone River
The coast includes long beaches and opportunities for surfing. Marina Romea also has a small marina at the mouth of the Lamone River. If you would like to combine beach days with water sports, this part of the town offers a different focus from the paths through the Pineta and the observation points at Pialassa.
A 35-kilometre cycling and walking path runs along the Lamone River. It connects the historical and cultural sights of Russi and Bagnacavallo with the landscapes along the Adriatic. This makes it possible to combine cycling and walking interests with cultural destinations and the coastal landscape. At 35 kilometres, a cycling or walking stage requires different planning from a short walk in the town, especially if individual historical and cultural destinations are included.
Explore Pialassa della Baiona by the water
A footbridge crosses the Pialassa della Baiona area lengthwise and provides access to the edge of the “Chiaro della Vena del Largo” basin. This gives you another opportunity, alongside forest paths, viewing towers and walks, to explore the waterscape of Marina Romea at close hand. The linear route is particularly relevant when planning a longer walk along the water locally.
