Offshore cave dive off Marseille with vivid light effects, a compact underwater profile, and a route that suits confident intermediate divers and above.

Plan for a slow, controlled boat dive with careful buoyancy near the roof, a compact route, and a conservative turnaround if the local sea state is less settled.
