Cold-water granite reefs, historic wrecks, and island-blue Atlantic light
Key fee: Destination-wide recreational dive permit
No general fee identified
Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
No destination-wide recreational scuba permit or marine-park tag was identified in the official and operator sources reviewed. The meaningful extras are operator or club administration, possible temporary license or insurance, accommodation tourist tax, passenger transport, and paid heritage access. All variable prices should be confirmed at booking because operators and municipalities update them independently.
| Fee | Amount | Applies to | Where to pay | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Destination-wide recreational dive permit | No general fee identified Not applicable | Recreational scuba, freedive, and snorkel visitors using authorized operators and public access |
| Not applicable |
This does not remove operator fees, club paperwork, local safety rules, reserve rules, fishing restrictions, or any permission needed for specialist activity. Confirm the current position with the chosen center. |
| Dive-center or club administration | Varies by operator and activity Per dive, package, course, temporary license, or club period | Scuba and freedive participants | Directly from the chosen dive center or club | A French club may include or require a temporary FFESSM license, liability insurance, membership, or medical documentation. Commercial centers set their own equivalency and insurance procedures. Ask for an itemized written quote. |
| Accommodation tourist tax | Varies by municipality and accommodation category Per eligible person per night | Eligible overnight visitors | Collected by the accommodation or booking platform where applicable | French public-service guidance confirms that the amount depends on the municipality and classification.

Use the official site for the current regime and rates. |
