    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    La calanque du Pouar offers a relaxed dive in the Calanques, ideal for a multi-tank day. You’ll find typical Mediterranean rocky reef structure with plenty of wrasse and damselfish darting about. It's a good choice for newer divers or those looking for a shallower, less challenging experience between deeper dives. We often tie it into a day exploring the coastline.
