Diving in the Marine Protected Area of Porto Venere
Starting from San Terenzo (La Spezia) you will be brought on a rubber boat to one of the most spectacular diving spots either in the protected marine area of Porto Venere or in the surroundings of the Gulf of Poets. The underwater world is exciting – steep rocks with an incredibly rich abundance of species – octopuses, fish shoals, corals (like the red gorgonian), Posidonia seaweed fields, barracudas, crayfish, murays, and much more! The area presents very interesting sea beds. You can explore different species of interesting flora and fauna.
You will meet your instructor in San Terenzo, near Lerici where you’ll take the equipment and receive the first introduction to this experience. After, on a boat you’ll reach Portovenere and its Marine protected area (MPA), where the activity will take place.
