    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Tombant Maeterlink is a solid wall dive in the Calanques, a good option when you’re looking for something a bit deeper without going extreme. The wall itself starts shallower but really comes into its own once you drop past 20 metres. We often find schooling barracuda out in the blue here, and the cracks in the rock hide moray eels and lobsters if you take your time. It’s a comfortable intermediate dive, great for anyone keen to practice their deeper no-decompression limits while enjoying some classic Mediterranean marine life.
