Épave Le Saumur: deep wreck for controlled boat dives
Deep wreck for experienced boat divers; keep the tour tight, manage buoyancy carefully, and use the separated stern and engine area as route markers.
About Épave Le Saumur
Épave Le Saumur is a deep wreck off Port-Vendres with the main hull upright, a separate stern section, and a layout that rewards a slow, controlled circuit. The route is compact but not trivial: you work from the engine area toward the stern, keep your trim tight over the muddy bottom, and use the visible emergency propeller and broken structure as markers. It suits experienced boat divers who can stay calm, avoid stirring silt, and keep the dive organized.
