Discover the fauna and flora of the underwater world as you explore the wrecks of the Calanques (limestone massifs) and the Archipelago of Marseille, all supervised by qualified instructors. Tour price includes first dive experience with your own instructor.
This tour is seasonal and operates from June to September only.
The natural abundance and quality of the sea beds around Marseille have made the city a meeting point for many divers.
Marseille is asserting itself as the scuba diving capital of France with the presence of the French Federation for Underwater Sports and Studies and the National Professional Diver's Institute. This is the only organization authorized to issue diplomas to diving in Marseille, starting with captain Cousteau's first trials using equipment that was still primitive, leading to the sophisticated tests being carried out now by Comex. Divers from the whole of Europe who meet up here all year round can't be wrong. Follow their example!
You will be collected by minibus and travel the five minute drive to the harbor. Jump aboard and take the boat (30 minutes) to the dive spots. The dive location is Riou Archipelago or Planier Island, which are situated just off the first Calanque (Callelongue). Your instructor will begin with an introduction to diving and safety including explanations about the equipment and the diving process. The dive is between 3 and 6 meters and the instructor will accompany you.
