About JARDINS DU PRECHEUR
Jardins du Prêcheur is a rocky, grotto-rich dive in the Prêcheur area of northern Martinique. It is typically run as a boat-supported scuba outing and suits divers who want gorgonians, sponges, and turtle country rather than a coral-heavy reef. The site rewards controlled buoyancy, a good brief, and a light for the shaded sections.
