Lerici is a coastal town on the Ligurian coast in Italy, offering access to the Ligurian Sea. It acts as a gateway for nearby dive sites along the Riviera di Levante, including rocky reefs and underwater walls within easy shore or short boat trips. While Lerici itself has limited diving infrastructure (no local dive centers recorded here), divers commonly use nearby towns with centers for bookings, equipment rental, and guided dives. Expect typical Mediterranean conditions: clear, warm surface water in summer, with varied macro life and rocky habitats. Accessibility from the town makes it suitable as a base for day trips to surrounding dive sites along the Ligurian coast.
