Expert B-26 Marauder wreck dive off the Brusc coast.
Expert B-26 Marauder wreck dive off the Brusc coast.
Access is typically arranged through local dive operations in the Brusc and Embiez area.
A deep Mediterranean wreck dive off the Brusc coast near Six-Fours-les-Plages, centered on a B-26 Marauder bomber resting in broken sections over sand and posidonia. Divers move between the larger fragments instead of following a single intact hull, so the site feels fragmented and deliberate rather than scenic in one pass. It is an expert-level boat dive that rewards careful gas planning, disciplined depth control, and a slow, methodical approach.
