Ostia Harbour: Ostia Antica was the main port and harbor for the city of Imperial Rome. Three kilometers (2 miles) north of Ostia city, and 25 km (15.5 mi) southwest of Rome, the harbor (or Portus) was carved into the alluvial delta of the Tiber River during the first century AD, much later than any other large Mediterranean city of its time. The city itself reached its heyday during the second century AD, with a population between 30,000 and 50,000 inhabitants, and it remained active until the third century, when it progressively declined, along with the rest the Roman Empire.
The athletics Team offers a unique, once in a lifetime experience to follow in the footsteps of the ancient Romans and sail the Mediterranean. In this trip, you will have the chance to be part of a crew, working together with other students to sail the open seas as well as to dock the sailboat, and help prep meals while on board!
