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) - Pointe de la galere offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
Pointe de la Galere offers a straightforward dive, often with good visibility along its rocky slopes. We usually find schools of damselfish here, sometimes barracuda cruise past in the deeper sections. It’s a decent choice for divers looking for a relaxed exploration without strong currents, suitable for those building their experience in the Mediterranean.
