Is there an official HTML/CSS documentation for Google Chrome ?
I need this to be able to correctly display my site when Chrome is
used.

There is not. In general you can use the MDC, https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS

Also the Safari CSS Reference contains a lot of webkit specific styling properties that are shared with Chrome

All of my site has been developped using the MDC.
However, there are differences in behaviour, notably with css
interpretation, which it would be good to have some official
documentation for.

Differences in CSS behavior between Firefox and Google Chrome/Safari
are quite likely to be bugs, regardless at which level (end-user code,
implementation or specification). If you want to verify which browser
might be wrong, always test using the latest versions (nightlies, if
available) and compare the output to Opera (11) or Internet Explorer
(9).

Keep in mind that certain CSS properties may be prefixed, such as
"-moz-outline-radius" and "-webkit-box-reflect". In that case the
implementation is experimental and sometimes not even available in a
specification.
