    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Piscina di Chiavari is less a dive site and more a sheltered spot perfect for confined water training. With a maximum depth of 2m, it’s ideal for beginners practicing buoyancy or mask clearing. You'll find it calm and protected, a practical choice when the sea elsewhere is a bit much. It’s not somewhere you’d go for marine life, but it serves its purpose well.
