A sea of events for the whole family

Stroll among the flowerbeds, discover the secrets of the pine forest, admire the flight of colourful kites, challenge yourself to your favourite sport or let us recommend a book to read under the beach umbrella.
Cervia, Milano Marittima, Pinarella and Tagliata will keep you company with lots of events dedicated to families and children. Between the sea, the pine forest and the city, every day there is something new to experience together to build unforgettable memories.
