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 Tombant des Allemands offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest wall diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Le Tombant des Allemands is a wall dive in the Calanques, starting shallow and dropping to a decent depth. We’ve found it’s a good spot for seeing common Mediterranean fish life, things like moray eels tucked into crevices or the occasional grouper. It’s a pretty standard Mediterranean wall, ideal for divers who enjoy exploring rocky topography and don't need a huge rush of pelagics. Conditions are usually calm, making it a reliable option for a relaxed dive.
