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) - Plage du Barry offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Plage du Barry offers a gentle entry into the Mediterranean, making it a good spot for newer divers getting comfortable in open water. You'll find a rocky seabed with scattered Posidonia meadows, often home to small octopuses and blennies tucked into crevices. It’s a straightforward dive, rarely busy, providing a quiet alternative to some of the more well-known sites in the Calanques. We often use it for skill refreshers or a relaxed afternoon dip.
