Discover the underwater treasures of the Cinque Terre Marine Protected Area on a focused 2-hour snorkeling experience led by skilled professionals who know these waters inside out. After meeting your crew, you’ll head out by boat to a suitable snorkeling spot based on sea conditions, then gear up with mask and fins and get ready to explore.

In the water, your guide helps you feel comfortable, points out key habitats, and supports you throughout the activity. To make the experience more engaging, you’ll receive waterproof identification cards that help you recognize common species you may encounter beneath the surface. Your guide can also share extra context about local marine life and the protected ecosystem you’re swimming through.

What truly makes this experience different is the citizen-science element. You’re invited to take an active role by helping collect scientific data about the marine environment. It’s a simple, hands-on way to contribute to understanding and protecting this unique coastline—while still keeping the experience fun and accessible.

To help you remember the day, the guide will also take photos during the activity, capturing your best moments in the water. After snorkeling, enjoy soft drinks on board as you return, wrapping up a short adventure packed with discovery, learning, and sea-time.
