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 Village Englouti offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Le Village Englouti, or "The Submerged Village," offers a unique dive, not for its marine life, but for the unusual underwater landscape created by a former quarry. Divers navigate a series of submerged structures and rock formations, almost like exploring a ghost town. It's an interesting spot for those who enjoy wreck-like dives or unusual topography rather than vibrant reef systems. Visibility can vary, but on a good day, the eerie atmosphere is palpable.
