Why dive here
With 70+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, humpback whales, mobula rays (devil rays) and oceanic whitetip sharks - BR20 offers some of Portofino & Liguria's richest diving. Water ranges 14-27°C, warmest July, August, September.
The BR20 in Portofino offers a look at a small plane wreck, resting on a sandy bottom. It's a fairly shallow dive, suitable for divers comfortable with open water. You'll likely spot moray eels tucked into the fuselage and octopus camouflaged nearby. A good second dive to round out a day.
