The Promontory of Portofino is placed in a particularly anthropized coastal context, characterized by multiple activities (nautical tourism, diving, bathing, fishing). Since 2005, the Marine Protected Area has been a SPAMI (Specially Protected Area of Mediterranean Interest), RAC/SPA of UNEP. The Eastern Ligurian Sea site includes the Porto Venere Regional Nature Park and the Cinque Terre National Park alongside areas with an industrial footprint and a strong environmental impact (port of La Spezia, shipbuilding, fishing, aquaculture).
