    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Les Peniches d Antheor, off the coast of Marseille, offers a look at a collection of old barges. It’s a site for divers interested in wreck photography and maritime history, without expecting huge pelagics. The structures provide habitat for some smaller reef fish and nudibranchs. We'd suggest it for experienced divers comfortable with Mediterranean conditions.
