Italy
Palinuro

Palinuro sits on the Tyrrhenian coast in Campania and serves as a gateway for local diving along the Cilento coastline. With a small cluster of centers, divers typically base here for day trips to nearshore reefs, walls, and wrecks accessible by short boat rides. Conditions are generally temperate with clear seas in summer, and marine life includes typical Mediterranean species observed around rocky reefs and seabeds. The city itself is more about access, boats, and coastal charm than a major dive destination, so most diving occurs a short drive away rather than in the city core.
