Pinnacoli - Portofino & Liguria

Pinnacoli, just off the Portofino coast, offers a solid dive for those with a few logged dives under their belt. We’re talking about a couple of distinct pinnacles that rise up from the seabed, topping out at around 28 metres. The dive here is all about exploring the nooks and crannies of these formations. You’ll spot plenty of red gorgonians clinging to the rock, creating a rich backdrop for nudibranchs and small schooling fish like damselfish. It’s a good choice if you're looking for a relaxed, moderately deep dive and want to take your time exploring the structure.
