Between sky and earth, a protected body of water where the precious resources of the sea are cultivated. The marine area of Torre del Cerrano is located in Abruzzo, the "green region of Europe," with over 30% of its territory protected.

In the Teramo provence, between two municipalities, Pineto and Silvi, the marine area spans seven kilometers of coastline and completes a program for the protection and enhancement of the environment, joining the network of underwater oases that have allowed, in recent years, the preservation, repopulation, and study of the marine ecosystem.

The name, actually a toponym, "Torre del Cerrano," embodies the symbols of the history and identity of this territory. Cerrano, the stream that flows from the hills of Atri – where the splendid "calanchi" are located, another protected area – and flows into the sea at Silvi, and the Tower, built in 1568 by the Spaniards as a defense against Saracen pirates. The fortress overlooks the dunes, completely restored and home to the Marine Biology Center, two kilometers from the center of Pineto.
