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 - Punta della Torretta offers some of Portofino & Liguria's richest diving. Water ranges 14-27°C, warmest July, August, September.
Punta della Torretta gives you a decent cross-section of what the Portofino marine park offers. We usually find it’s a drift along a sloping reef, dropping down to about 25 or 30 metres, where you'll spot some impressive dusky groupers. Closer to the wall, between 10 and 15 metres, the scarlet coral really pops, and you often see ornate wrasse weaving through it. Look for rockfish tucked into crevices and keep an eye out for common lobsters too. It’s a solid dive for advanced open water divers looking for a relaxed exploration rather than anything too dramatic.
