For those who love the underwater world, this is one of the most beautiful places on Earth: the Portofino Marine Protected Area,<\/strong> a stretch of sea offering an extremely rich natural heritage.

A true paradise for diving<\/strong> enthusiasts, ideal both for those approaching scuba diving for the first time and for more experienced divers. The variety of seabeds and favorable marine conditions make this stretch of coastline perfect for experiencing the sea in depth, in total safety and with a wide range of experiences.
These seabeds are a wonder also for underwater photography enthusiasts, who will find exciting scenery, lights, and colors.

A journey among yellow and red gorgonians, corals<\/strong>, sponges, red coral, and a multitude of fish species: moray eels, conger eels, sea breams, dentex, large dusky groupers, barracudas, scorpionfish, and, especially in summer, sunfish, amberjacks, tunas, and anglerfish. With a bit of luck, encounters with dolphins are not uncommon.

For wreck diving enthusiasts, there are four wrecks<\/strong>: Mohawk Deer (within the MPA), Cargo Armato, Bettolina Jorn, and the submarine chaser KT, towards Sestri Levante.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
