Morski rezervat Miramare

Obiščite zaščiteno območje Miramare severozahodno od Trsta. Gre za posebno turistično, naravno in kulturno-zgodovinsko zanimivost.

The Miramare Marine Protected Area, the first established in Italy, extends around the Miramare promontory, just a few kilometers northwest of the city of Trieste.

The Reserve is located within a tourist hub that combines naturalistic and historical-cultural aspects. Just beyond, there are the park and Miramare Castle, a museum and historic residence of striking beauty; the Bio.Ma., the Immersive Museum of the Miramare Marine Protected Area, housed in the right wing of the former Miramare Stables.

One of the most fascinating activities to explore the marine biodiversity of this reserve is sea-watching of the seabed: an activity suitable for everyone since the only requirement is the ability to swim and use basic equipment such as a mask, snorkel, and fins.
