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 farillons offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest pinnacle diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Les Farillons gives you a classic Mediterranean pinnacle dive. We usually drop onto the main stack, then spiral down, often finding groupers lurking in the shadows and schools of damselfish flitting about. It's a relaxed dive, good for getting your bearings in the area, or if you're keen for a straightforward boat dive without strong currents.
