This was one of the coolest experiences I found while I was in Italy. They have a link on their…read morewebsite for accommodations. Click farm inn - Agriturismo Terre Rosse Portofino - where you can reserve the little farm to table Inn to spend the night. There is a waterfall next to the Inn. They provide breakfast and dinner each day. Once you're done diving you get dropped off at this little dock in the area the Christ of the Abyss is located and you have to hike up the mountain. Yes, I said hike. So pack light! Then they come pick you up the next morning for your day of diving. When we did this tour, we were fairly new divers (I mean like 10 dives) and the water was rough! Portofino Divers is a group of Tech Divers so they don't call dives for much. The swells were insane. I was underweighted and the water was freezing. But they helped us and they were super patient. One of the divers even took my GoPro and took videos and photos for me. Those were some of the deepest dives we've ever done (34-36 Meters!). We did get to see the Christ statue even with the visibility being terrible. We also did our first drift dives here. Great memories and I would highly recommend this operation. They have showers you can use back at the dive shop too.

The Boot is clean, fast and the captain knows what he is doing. Specially for technical diving this is the first adress around Portofino. Thanks! We will be back!

Look into this mailing before you book those guys:…read moreDiving5Terre Hi, I'll book you 2 dives for 2 people for Sunday 22nd September, meeting at the diving centre in Riomaggiore at 09.30 to prepare the equipment at 10.00 ready to go. on the way back we'll change the tank and at around 12.30 we'll leave for the second dive from the beach as I told you on the phone. at around 13.00 we'll be done and you're free. the cost of 2 dives on the same day is €135 per person, to be paid on site in cash please. if you need more info write to me. Then: Hi, I am *** from the diving centre in Riomaggiore, I wanted to inform you of a change in the programme, if it is OK with you, I am moving your dives due to bad weather to Tuesday 24 September, everything remains unchanged both the times and the dive methods. Send me an email to confirm Sorry for the inconvenience. Then: Hi Natalya, unfortunately I have to warn you that on Monday 23 and Tuesday 24, it will not be possible to carry out any activities at sea due to adverse weather conditions rough seas, !!!AND ON SUNDAY 22 WE ARE FULL!!!. Sorry for the inconvenience, but there is nothing we can do about the bad weather. And the final shot after I started asking to put me back to my initial 'now safe' date Sept 22 since this is when I actually wanted to dive: unfortunately we can't do anything about the weather/sea conditions, let's try to dive on Tuesday, let's bring forward the time to 9.00 and not 9.30 because the weather changes at the end of the morning and it will certainly be a nice dive sorry Natalya but regarding the organization of the management of the diving please leave it to us who know how to do it. thanks. Not sure how to call it but I had to find another diving center very close to the date which is almost impossible

This is the only scuba situation in cinque terra. The water is clear and warm and beautiful. Our…read moreinstructor was kind, however the dive itself was not impressive. Also we had to carry our equipment down flights of stairs across the busy boardwalk and to the boats. We said "no" when they told us to bring it back up at the end. It's fairly expensive (65 euro for one dive and an extra 40 for the second). Also as soon as the dive was over the instructor was GONE to his next dive. No talking about what fish we saw, no signing or stamping our dive books. Just money making. I'm still glad we did it, but I wouldn't do it again.
