Santa Margherita Activities

What you can do on the water from Santa Margherita.

Boarding at Calata del Porto, the route curves around the Portofino promontory before reaching the marine park's clearest water — Paraggi first, San Fruttuoso a short crossing further on.

After Rounding Portofino

Paraggi's emerald bay.

Past Portofino's harbor, the route reaches Paraggi's shallow, sandy-pebble bay — a first swim and snorkeling stop before the water gets deeper toward San Fruttuoso.

San Fruttuoso and the Christ of the Abyss.

A bay built around a thousand-year-old abbey, with the bronze Christ of the Abyss statue at snorkeling depth just offshore — the longest single stop on the route from Santa Margherita.
