Marina of Rome

The port, designed in the 1990s, it is part of a redevelopment project of the area of the Ostia Seaplane Base; in fact, the Centro Habitat Mediterraneo, an oasis of 20 hectares (49 acres) managed by LIPU (Italian Bird Protection League) extends not far from one of the entrances of the port.

The construction was entrusted to ATI (Attività Turistiche e Imprenditoriali), which inaugurated the Marina in 32 months, with an investment of 120 billion lire, in June 2001.

In 2015 Mauro Balini, the administrator of the port, was arrested on charges of bankruptcy (regarding the stimulated bankruptcy of ATI), issue of false invoices, money laundering and corruption; the port is therefore administered by the Italian judiciary.[1]
