Bergeggi Island: Kayak and Snorkeling Tour in the MPA

Bergeggi Island: Kayak and Snorkeling Tour in the MPA

A local guide will guide you to discover the natural wonders and the historical and archaeological remains hidden in this place. A briefing on safety at sea, on the behaviours to have within a protected marine area and on the citizen science protocol to be used, will be the beginning of this adventure. On board the kayak we start from Spotorno beach paddling towards the island of Bergeggi, a small cone of limestone rock covered in Mediterranean scrub which is only 250 m from the coast. Here you can find the most varied herbs of the terrestrial-maritime flora with some exclusive species of Liguria. During the journey to the island, the monitoring activity begins: after having addressed the rules to follow during snorkelling and the Citizen Science activity, the guide gives the participants the tablets on which the species observed will be indicated. We will observe the rock in search of the main species of algae to understand the ecological quality of the coast, and we will sharpen our eyes to identify and count the two main species of sea urchins, essential engineers of our ecosystem. The data, marked in pencil on the monitoring tablets, will then be shared with the University of Genoa and the Bergeggi MPA, to help the scientific community monitor the coast. From the island you continue along the cliffs, small inlets and caves of the area where with a mask and snorkel you can admire the coral seabed and Posidonia oceanica meadows while snorkelling. The excursion allows you to discover a place rich in biodiversity, history and legend. An opportunity to admire the beauty of the area and protect it through knowledge and monitoring of the present species. Who will accompany you on this adventure?
