With 70+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, humpback whales, mobula rays (devil rays) and oceanic whitetip sharks - Baia di Castiglioncello offers some of Portofino & Liguria's richest diving.
Baia di Castiglioncello sits tucked away near Portofino, a friendly spot for anyone just getting their fins wet. With a maximum depth of 10 metres, it's pretty forgiving, letting you relax and get comfortable. You’ll find schools of small fish zipping through the seagrass beds, and if you take your time, you might spot a shy octopus or a colourful nudibranch clinging to a rock. We've always found it a good place to brush up on skills or simply enjoy a quiet dip without the pressure of deeper or more challenging dives.
