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) - Sentier sous marin offers some of Marseille & Calanques's richest diving. Water ranges 14-25°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Sentier sous marin, or underwater trail, is less a dive site and more a snorkel or free-diving spot. It’s set up with buoys and information panels guiding you through seagrass beds and rocky outcrops just below the surface. You'll spot small fish like damselfish and wrasse, maybe an octopus tucked into a crevice. It’s perfect for families or those new to the water, offering an easy introduction to the Mediterranean shallows.
