    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Le Grand St Antoine is a solid, reliable dive just off Marseille. It's a typical Mediterranean rocky reef, dropping down to around 20-25 metres, with some nice small caves and swim-throughs to explore if you know where to look. You'll often find schooling damselfish, small groupers, and moray eels tucked into crevices. This site is a good choice for newer divers looking for an easy, pleasant dive without strong currents.
