    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    The Piste de ski, or "Ski Slope," lives up to its name with a gradual sandy descent, eventually meeting rocky outcrops. It's a relaxed dive, good for newer divers or those looking for an easy day out. We often see scorpionfish tucked into the rocks and small schools of Mediterranean damselfish darting about. Visibility here is usually quite good, making it a pleasant, straightforward exploration.
