Punta dell’Indiano
Punta dell’Indiano is a Portofino wall dive with rich biodiversity.
Guided Portofino boat dives here focus on a deep wall, clear conditions, and no-current diving that rewards careful buoyancy.
About Punta dell’Indiano
Punta dell’Indiano is a Portofino wall dive with a rock face that breaks the surface and a steep section beneath a posidonia plateau. The upper ridge feeds into a deep wall and cracked rock where most of the biodiversity sits. It is best as a guided boat dive under marine-park rules, with no current and careful buoyancy mattering more than speed. Expect nudibranchs, octopus, moray eels, scorpionfish, conger, and red coral in the deeper cracks.
