    Grand Tombant offers a good wall dive in Corsica, dropping from 20 to 40 metres. It’s a site for those who appreciate the structure of a deep Mediterranean wall. We've often found decent visibility here, allowing for a good look at the various encrusting life and small fish tucked into the crevices. If you enjoy deeper profiles and classic wall diving, it’s worth a slot in your dive plan.
