The crystal-clear waters surrounding this seaside village are a big draw for water lovers. The ideal place for all types of watersports, from paddleboarding to kitesurfing, the area surrounding Portofino is also favoured for its diving sites. Head over to the marine park where you can see the famous Critto Degli Abissi, a submerged bronze statue located in the waters in front of the Abbey San Fruttuoso. Sunken in honour of those who lost their lives at sea, it’s located around 40-metres underwater and is surrounded by colourful reefs and a plethora of marine life.
