Colombara - Portofino & Liguria

Colombara offers a relaxed dive along a rocky slope, a nice counterpoint to some of Portofino’s more demanding sites. We often find dusky groupers tucked into the crevices, and the wall itself is home to plenty of conger eels and rockfish if you take your time to peer into the shadows. Look for patches of red coral as you descend, and keep an eye out for moonfish cruising by in the blue. It’s a solid pick for a second dive or if you’re looking for something calm, suitable for most skill levels.
