    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Le Rousteau Nord offers a solid Mediterranean dive for those exploring the Calanques. The main draw is a series of rocky drop-offs and shelves, providing cover for moray eels and lobsters tucked into the crevices. It’s a good spot for a relaxed exploration, suitable for divers comfortable with depths around 20-25 meters, looking for typical local fauna rather than big pelagics.
