Snorkeling Tour in Paraggi, Portofino

Variable
About this activity

Meet your guide in Niasca, a sandy beach nestled in the vegetation of the Mediterranean Sea, next to Paraggi Bay, famous for its crystal clear blue water. After getting settled in the outdoor sports center and supplied of the necessary snorkeling equipment (all sizes available) you will be introduced by your local guide to marine and environmental notions.

Comfortably sitting on the terrace, through pictures you will be briefed on the great variety of fish species and marine plants you will come across while snorkeling. After a quick explanation on how to use this equipment, you are ready to dive. The environmental guide will lead you underwater searching for hidden treasures in Portofino’s Marine Protected Area. During the first part of the excursion inside Niasca’s bay, you will swim above one of the most extended Posidonia meadows of the area which together with the near cliff, hosts many species such as tube-worms, starfish, Pinna Nobilis, Posidonia, sponges and mollusks.

Leaving Niasca’s bay to our shoulders, we get into the second part of our journey swimming towards Portofino in a coast section rich of fish species, such as sea breams, gilt-head bream, sea bass, moray eel, damsel and many more. Crossing the bay, you’ll swim above different habitats, such as Posidonia meadow and sandy seabed, house of many different species. This bay, forbidden to boat traffic is therefore completely safe for swimming.
