As you enter this site you will find a steep slope of rocks reaching a maximum depth of 30 meters. This site is full of burrows and holes, ideal habitat for countless species of marine animals. A dive that never disappoints.
From here we enter the full protection zone of the Bergeggi MPA, a dive that develops to a maximum depth of 18 m with the wall on the left, we encounter a wall full of small burrows and a small inlet that often holds unexpected surprises.
Grotta dei Gamberi dive site, located on the east side of Punta Chiappa, begins at 18 meters at the base of the mooring buoy. Heading south and slightly to the west, the rocky seabed mixed with posidonia slowly slopes down to 22 meters, where a beautiful vertical sinking wall begins.
In the fabulous and unique San Fruttuoso Bay, a life-size statue has been placed in memory of Duilio Marcante. The statue lies at a depth of about 16 meters and, including its base, rises about 5 meters.
The subsoil of this popular bathing lake consists of gravel, which offers good visibility even during heavy bathing. On weekends there are usually plenty of divers on site. Those who can may prefer to dive during the week when it is less crowded.
About 500 m. from the south side of the island of Bergeggi Marine Protected Area, we find 5 large rocks scattered on the seabed spaced by stretches of sand, the minimum depth is 42 m. and the maximum of 46 m. it is a dive in which the water is very often clean and sometimes we can find curren
The dive site owes its name to the appearance of the rock face that lies above the surface of the sea and which seems to resemble the face of an American Indian (with a little imagination). The wall that starts at 25 meters is the most interesting in terms of biodiversity. Excellent for nudibranch lovers.
To the east of the channel leading to San Fruttuoso, an indentation in the Promontory wall provides shelter for numerous pigeons, which give the dive site its name. The dive begins on a 10-meter seabed, from where a wall starts that sinks to 36 meters. There are 3 caves.
One of the most famous dives in the entire Portofino promontory. A beautiful shoal with a cap at -6 mt, very rich in fish, you can turn it all around in 30 minutes of diving.
A beautiful vertical wall between 20 and 30 meters covered with yellow sea daisies, continuing towards the west the slope is very gentle, and leads us to another group of rocks that slopes with small jumps again towards 30 meters.
Coming down the slope that lines Villa Crespi, we arrive at Ortello. We find ourselves in a small area with access to the lake and a small limited parking lot; on the right we find a very small private marina. The dive proceeds to the left.
Most renowned and coveted dive among those in the park, beautiful also the location that outdoors on clear days allows you to see the coast from Camogli to Genoa in all its splendor.
A nice wall dive, very easy orientation and conditions. You descend to an altitude of 10 meters and from there a beautiful wall covered with parazoantus starts.
Named after a land cave where a hermit lived there, who spent 30 years in the cave fed by fishermen, who unfortunately passed away in the same cave. Dive for all levels, but recommended for advanced.
