About La Piscine
La Piscine on Cap Ferrat is a boat dive built around a shallow rocky plateau that drops away into a broader slope. It is best for easy exploration in settled water, with the rock edge doing most of the work rather than long swim distances or complex navigation. Expect a Mediterranean mix of gorgonians, groupers, moray eels, barracuda, octopus, and other reef fish along the ledges.
