With 157+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and mobula rays (devil rays) - Le Sec de L Armoire offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest pinnacle diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Le Sec de L'Armoire, just off the coast of Marseille, offers a straightforward dive. We've found it to be a good spot for newer divers, with a gentle descent along a rocky reef. You'll typically see smaller Mediterranean species here, like scorpionfish tucked into crevices and various wrasse darting between the rocks. It’s a solid choice for a relaxing afternoon dive.
