Laghetto Standiana - Portofino & Liguria

Laghetto Standiana is an inland quarry dive, a bit of a curveball in the Ligurian region. You'll find freshwater conditions here, a complete change from the Portofino marine park. It's mostly a training ground, good for refreshing skills or early open water dives, with a few sunken objects to explore. Don't expect dramatic coral or big pelagics, but it serves a purpose for local dive schools.
