Cervia (Emilia Romagna)

Cervia is a town in the province of Ravenna, in the region of Emilia-Romagna. Cervia is a seaside resort on the Adriatic Riviera thanks to its 10-kilometre (6 mi) shore characterised by sandy beaches. The city has successfully gained the environmental EMAS certification thanks to its green areas and its harmonic touristic development and every year, since 1998, Cervia has also received the important “Bandiera Blu (Blue Flag)” award. Surrounded by more than 300 hectares of pinewood and 827 hectares of salt pans, it is a natural oasis with a large bird population. The most important monuments are the Cathedral (Santa Maria Assunta), built in 1699–1702, the Museum of Salt, the Communal Palace and the St. Michael Tower.

We have black spot algae appearing on the walls of our swimming pool. We understand that the best product to use is Lo Chlor black spot eradication but this doesn’t seem to be available in Italy. We are able to get it in the U.K. but know that it’s important to treat it asap.

Hello! 

I wonder if someone may be able to help me ? In 2005 we purchased some land and property. The intention was to set up an Agri Tourism. We were unable to stop the infiltration of hunters onto the land and eventually abandoned the venture in 2007.
