Il Cristo di Riva del Garda
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 - Il Cristo di Riva del Garda offers some of Portofino & Liguria's richest diving. Water ranges 14-27°C, warmest July, August, September.
In Portofino, the Il Cristo di Riva del Garda site gives divers a chance to see a submerged statue. It’s a calm dive, often with good visibility, making it suitable for newer divers or those who prefer a relaxed exploration. The real draw here is the statue itself, a unique photographic subject, rather than extensive marine life. We’d suggest it for a shorter dive, perhaps as a second dive of the day.
