Genesio Point
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 - Genesio Point offers some of Portofino & Liguria's richest diving. Water ranges 14-27°C, warmest July, August, September.
Genesio Point offers a straightforward dive along the Portofino coastline. We usually find decent visibility here, letting us appreciate the gorgonian fans that cling to the walls. It’s a good spot for a relaxed dive, with a chance to spot some local Mediterranean fish, nothing too dramatic, but always pleasant. Perfect for a second dive of the day or when you're easing back into things.
