In the locality of Porto Caleri there is the Litoraneo Botanical Garden and the Caleri lagoon, inhabited by several migratory and resident fauna specimens.
The history of Rosolina Mare
The conformation of the territory of Rosolina Mare has influenced its formation with the contribution of sediment from the Po and Adige rivers, and in particular the ancient branch of the Po called Po di Tramontana located in the locality of Boccavecchia. Settlements in the area were born in the 1950s and 1960s, first dedicated to fishing and later also to tourism.

The hamlet borders to the north with Isola Verde, a hamlet of the municipality of Chioggia, and to the south with the Island of Albarella.
