The Giardino Botanico Mediterraneo di San Salvo is located in Marina di Chieti, in the province of Chieti. It is a protected area of about 8 hectares, that is 80000 m2, where the predominant biotype is one of the last specimens of the dune system of the Adriatic, characterised by its typical structure made up of strips parallel to the coastline.

Luckily, saved from construction, the green area continues in the S.I.C, site of community interest, of Marina di Vasto, with many rare psammophile species that only live close to the sea because they are fit for and love sandy environments.

These species are held within the botanical garden, created following naturalistic principles and recreating the Mediterranean shrub with its typical shrub species: Juniperus spp. and Rosmarinus spp. in the lower part, Quercus ilex in the upper one and a wood of deciduous plants.

The area beyond the dunes host a vegetation linked to wet habitats, thanks to the presence of ponds, the ideal environment for local birds.
