Canyon Terra - Portofino & Liguria

Canyon Terra offers a gentle dive, dropping to around 29 metres in the Portofino Marine Protected Area. We found the site best for divers who enjoy exploring rock formations and the smaller critters that shelter among them. Look closely for nudibranchs and small crabs tucked into the crevices; the larger pelagics are usually elsewhere. It’s a good intermediate option when you want a relaxed dive without strong currents.
