Seafront "La Diga"

A splendid walk along the Nazario Sauro seafront between the Emperor Beach in the east and the Costa Azzurra Beach in the west, a real emotional path that offers unbeatable sunsets and landscapes that have always enchanted tourists and locals to observe the sea, in every season. Many events take place along this fascinating Promenade and there are some restaurant facilities.

Built by the Republic of Venice in the mid-1700s as a palisade embedded in clay, to protect the old city of the castrum from the storms, during the French domination it was replaced by a stone embankment. In 1885 the Austrians built the present donkey-back base of the promenade, and in 1934, the structure was completed up to the area of ​​today's Costa Azzurra beach. Over the years it was transformed and modified: after the Second World War it was adapted to a seaside promenade along the line of Liberty Pensions and villas of the early twentieth century. Along the dam, a square  was named Pier Paolo Pasolini, 50 years after the making of the film Medea on the Golden Island of Grado.
