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 Piscine de La Ciotat offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
La Piscine de La Ciotat offers a straightforward dive, popular for its calm conditions. You'll find a rocky seabed with scattered patches of seagrass, home to small Mediterranean wrasse and nudibranchs. It’s a good spot for dive training or for those wanting a relaxed swim in the water. We’d suggest it for newer divers or a chill second dive of the day.
