Even if intensely modified by men the territory of Ravenna has maintained unique and evocative natural areas, conserved in protected reserves, mostly in the Po Delta  regional park, which is home to animal and plant species of great interest.  Several habitats are found such as the marshes, salt pans, pinewoods. Just a few kilometers offshore there is the Paguro wreck reserve, a protected biological area providing a unique opportunity for divers to observe an ecological niche where many species find shelter.
