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) - La Fourmigue Nord offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Dropping down at La Fourmigue Nord, you'll find a series of rocky fingers extending into deeper water. It's a typical Mediterranean reefscape, with gorgonians starting to appear as you gain depth, and crevices often sheltering moray eels or lobsters. Visibility here can vary, but on a good day, the light plays nicely through the gaps in the rock. It's a solid, straightforward dive for those looking for a relaxed exploration of the local seabed.
