Snorkeling Sites
In all our tours we go snorkeling at wonderful islands:
One of them is Île d'Or island which topped by a tower on the rock and offers an exceptional panorama facing a beach of rare blue magma pebbles. You will dive around its rocks to discover its diverse and wonderful fauna and flora.
Our spot at the Lion de Mer island is sheltered from the wind. Below the surface, you can admire the flowering corals on the walls. Two statues can be seen at depth: the mermaid and the virgin. This island is home to a variety of colorful mollusks and lobsters.
Île de la Vieille Island is characterised by a grandiose water trail formed by nature, including canyons, creeks and even caves.
Programme
We will meet you directly at the campsite "La plage d'Argens" where our base is located. There, you will be picked up by your instructor who will give you the safety instructions, provide you with the material and explain how to use it. We will accompany you to the nearby boat to take you to the designated site. There, you will dive into the clear water under the supervision of your instructor who will guide you and give you the explanations beforehand.
