TheCattolica Aquarium It is the largest and best-organised in the Adriatic; it is home to the most interesting and fascinating marine species, and its trails are sure to thrill everyone, young and old alike. A veritable porthole looking out onto the depths, situated just a stone’s throw from the sea.

L'Cattolica Aquarium It is housed in a charming, historic building dating from the 1930s, whose design is reminiscent of a naval fleet. The building was completely renovated in the 2000s under the guidance of the Superintendency for Environmental and Architectural Heritage, which oversaw the regeneration of the entire area.

Blue, yellow, green and purple are the colours of the journey you’ll take within it to discover the magnificent sea creatures.

The more than one hundred tanks and areas along the Blue Trail offer visitors fascinating marine scenes in which sharks, turtles, penguins and jellyfish take centre stage, providing the best illustration of how biological evolution has taken place, having succeeded in preserving their species for millions of years.

The blue trail takes you deep into the oceans of the entire globe, revealing their unique features, their colourful fish, their majestic creatures, their tiny organisms and the beautiful coral reef.

It is fascinating to discover the waterways and their inhabitants, such as the otters of the eastern streams and the dwarf caimans of the Amazon River, which are featured on the yellow trail, which focuses on one of the most precious resources of all: water.

Progress is being made in theCattolica Aquarium with the ‘green trail’ through the mysterious world of reptiles, amphibians and insects – a world that often remains hidden from our view.

The stars of the show here are chameleons, frogs, geckos, tortoises, insects of all kinds, snakes, lizards and iguanas, all moving about in a natural environment that has been recreated as faithfully as possible to their original habitat.

The next stop is the purple interactive trail, where you can listen to the sounds produced by all the inhabitants of the deep sea as they move about, the sounds they make to communicate, and the sound of the waves.

L'Cattolica Aquarium It is, therefore, a truly remarkable educational experience, designed to explore marine life so that we can observe it at close quarters and learn to respect its inhabitants.

It is, therefore, a way of raising awareness in an engaging manner, thanks to the Aquarium’s collaboration with major projects aimed at the preservation and protection of endangered species, and the involvement of schools through visits and targeted educational programmes.

The Cattolica Aquarium is seen as an interesting experience for families with children, for tourists in holiday on the Romagna Riviera and for all those who are fascinated by nature and the creatures that inhabit it.

The Cattolica Aquarium has reported excellent results and, in a development that has surprised everyone (given the economic crisis gripping the whole country, which has also hit the tourism sector), a 15% increase in visitor numbers!!!

The new attractions that the park had made available to the public for the season were indeed impressive: penguins, shark diving and new trails. This news delighted everyone, starting with the park’s staff, who can now feel secure in their jobs, and also the hoteliers who had forged strong partnerships with the park.
