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) - Les Deux Jumelles offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest pinnacle diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Les Deux Jumelles offers a pair of pinnacles rising from the seabed, a common feature in the Calanques. We’ve found these formations often hold schools of barracuda or dentex in the deeper sections, particularly during late summer. It’s a good spot for divers comfortable with a bit of depth who appreciate the dramatic topography of the Mediterranean. Expect cool water and decent visibility here, typical of the region.
