Amateur Sport Association Posidonia was founded in 1992 and offers full range of certified PADI and CEDIP/SIAS courses.
Our Amateur Sport Association boasts a unique location! It overlooks the sea, in Genoa Quinto, just below the little church of Sant’Erasmo.
As a Amateur Sport Association, we only accept members in good standing with the annual fee.
We mostly dive into the Portofino Marine Area, half an hour by dinghy from our site;
Usually our activities are from May to October, on Saturdays, Sundays and sometimes even on weekdays, depending on sea conditions.
In the following maps you’ll see all diving spots.
