About La Faille
La Faille is a tectonic fissure dive north of Goubet, where experienced divers follow a long crack between rock walls and through caves and tunnels. The site is boat-based and tide-sensitive, with current on the channel side but a protected anchorage and clear water near the dive line. It suits divers who want dramatic geology and active fish life more than an easy reef.
