Why dive here
With 157+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and mobula rays (devil rays) - Baou Tailla offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Baou Tailla sits just off the coast in the Calanques, a typical Mediterranean dive. You’ll find some interesting rock formations and a good chance to spot moray eels tucked into crevices. It’s a decent option for a relaxed dive, particularly if you’re looking to get wet without venturing too far from Marseille. We'd suggest it for divers who appreciate calm conditions and macro spotting over big pelagics.
