Anse Du Paradis
Shallow shore bay at La Franqui.
Plan for an easy nearshore cove with seagrass, small fish, and calm-day access.
About Anse Du Paradis
Anse Du Paradis is a shallow shore site at La Franqui in Leucate, with clear water, posidonia meadows, and easy fish-spotting that make it a strong beginner-friendly snorkeling or freediving stop. On calm days it feels relaxed and open, while windier Tramontane conditions make the bay less comfortable and less clear. It is best treated as a simple shoreline session rather than a full dive-day commitment.
