Cesenatico: what to see and what to do
If you have never been to this area, then you will realize there is so much more to see and do than you think.
So let us start with Cesenatico, which is lucky enough to be a charming seaside village.
Along the Canal Port of Cesenatico, designed by Leonardo da Vinci, you can admire boats from other times with sails featuring splendid colors and designs.
The boats are part of the Floating Maritime Museum, which, in addition to this outdoor section, has an exhibition that introduces you to life on board, navigation techniques and the magical-religious symbols of life at sea.

While you stroll among the small shops selling handicrafts and delicious restaurants near the Canal Port, you will explore little streets leading you to enchanting places like Piazza delle Conserve.
Here, ice houses made of stone dating back centuries tell the story of how food was preserved before the invention of the precious, and today irreplaceable, refrigerator.
