Marina Diving - Portofino & Liguria

Marina Diving, just outside Portofino, offers a relaxed dive in the Portofino Marine Protected Area. You won't find dramatic drop-offs here, but the shallow reefs are good for spotting things like the colourful Painted Comber or a sneaky Broadnosed pipefish. We’ve often seen schools of Saddled and White Seabream cruising by, and if you look closely among the Bushy Coral, you might spot a Black Goby peeking out. It’s a gentle spot, probably best for a second dive of the day or if you're looking for an easier entry into the MPA’s general vibe. Keep an eye out for a passing Bass.
