SAN FRUTTUOSO DI CAMOGLI
An unforgettable experience
Do you want to explore the secret beauty of San Fruttuoso in an exclusive and exciting way? An enchanting and suggestive location on the Ligurian coast, immersed in uncontaminated nature and surrounded by crystal clear waters. Our charter boat tour is the ideal option for you! You can reach the ancient Abbey of San Fruttuoso by sea, located in front of the bay and immersed in the surrounding Mediterranean scrub and discover unique places, such as the Christ of the Abyss, a life-size bronze statue positioned on the seabed, about 15 meters deep.
A Statue, a timeless symbol
If you are not interested in scuba diving, you can still admire a replica of the statue inside the church of San Fruttuoso. By purchasing an entrance ticket, you can visit the suggestive Abbey of San Fruttuoso, a Benedictine monastery dating back to the year 1000. During the spring and summer, when the sea is calm, you also have the opportunity to see the statue while snorkeling. The statue of Christ of the Abyss was commissioned by the famous Italian diver Duilio Mercante in memory of his friend Dario Gonzatti, who died at that point during a dive. Created by the artist Guido Galletti, the statue was lowered on August 22, 1954..
