Ready to enter the world of silence? Mythical wrecks, drop-offs and drifts at all depths will dazzle you, whether you’re a novice or an expert. Dive on wrecks accessible to beginners, such as Le Cimentier<\/a>, or, for the more experienced, access the most famous wrecks in the Mediterranean, such as L’Arroyo <\/a> or Le Donator<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our professional diving centers welcome you in complete safety and offer you, in a friendly atmosphere, freediving, snorkeling and dives at all levels, from exploration to training, from beginner to instructor.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

The snorkeling life<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you’re tempted by an underwater adventure but not quite ready for scuba diving, head for the coves of Provence M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e. Simple equipment – flippers, mask, snorkel – is all you need to penetrate the beauty of the Mediterranean: starfish, colorful fish, anemones, sea urchins, posidonia and octopus play hide-and-seek in the rocks just a few meters from shore. Open your eyes wide!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
At what age can you start scuba diving?<\/summary>\n
Most diving centers welcome children aged 8 and over for baptisms. For deeper dives, ask the professionals. You need to be able to swim. Parental consent is required.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
I want to dive but I’m afraid to take the plunge<\/strong><\/summary>\n
Get in touch with the instructors at one of our professional diving centers. They’ll be able to answer your questions and reassure you. However, if you’re still apprehensive, you can turn to snorkeling, which also lets you explore the seabed from the surface.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
Where are the best places to start diving?<\/strong><\/summary>\n
There are several diving spots in the Provence M\u00e9diterran\u00e9e region where you can enjoy a first dive in shallow waters: around the Embiez archipelago or Deux Fr\u00e8res rocks in La Seyne-sur-Mer, as in Le Pradet, or in the waters around the islands of Hy\u00e8res, Porquerolles and Port-Cros, or the Giens peninsula.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
