SSI Discover Scuba Diving in Massif de l'Esterel" I decided to go diving at the last moment before my trip back, as my vacation was ending. It was a spontaneous decision, and I am very happy that I joined Pascal's team. We received instructions and safety rules while we were on the boat heading to the diving point. Divers were paired in diving couples: a diver and a diving instructor. It felt reliable and safe. I was lucky to be paired with Pascal, who also has a sense of humor. We enjoyed fresh croissants with delicious tea (I regret not asking what kind of tea it was) after the dive, which was so nice as we shared our emotions and impressions. If I return to Fréjus on vacation, I will definitely take my diving lessons there!"Olena, July 1, 2024From 100€ / day (3hrs)- Sainte-Maxime23 km from Saint-Raphaël (35 min by car)25Customer recommendations6Scuba diving offersSainte-Maxime: Popular Scuba DivesSnorkeling Excursion from Sainte-Maxime"Very thorough, professional, and knowledgeable.
