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) - Le cimentier offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Le Cimentier offers a straightforward dive on a small cargo ship wreck near Marseille. We often find schooling fish around the broken bow and stern sections, with nudibranchs clinging to the hull. It’s a good spot for a relaxed second dive or for divers getting comfortable with wreck penetration, though most of it is quite open. Visibility here can vary, but it’s generally sheltered from stronger winds.
