The Fondazione Cetacea in Riccione has been committed for years to increasing public awareness of the conservation and protection needs of sea turtles and it does so by engaging adults and children. Because love and respect for nature and animals is learnt as children!

The "Adopt a turtle" project is an important gesture that not only helps sea turtles that are at risk of extinction but also contributes to keeping the Foundation going.

It is a project that children love as it allows them to get closer to the marine world in an exciting and educational way.

Every child receives an adoption diploma from the Foundation with photos of the turtle they have adopted, emails when the turtle is returned to sea, and a really cute thing, they can also give their own name to the next turtle to arrive at the Foundation!

Riccione Family Hotels, which has always been close to your children's world, attentive to the education and growth of children and sensitive to environmental issues, supports Fondazione Cetacea in its project to bring awareness and protection to marine animals. And from this year it will involve it's youngest guests in this important project.

In our family hotels you will find information about the centre and the "Adopt a turtle" project, about visits to the ADRIA turtle centre and about ways to contribute to helping the Foundation.

Because our children shouldn’t have to dream about a better world: they have the right to live in a better world!
